Explain to me why the letter from CASA to CVD pilots is not good old fashioned. Bullying? If an employer tried something like this they would be prosecuted in the blink of an eye. Why is CASA exempt?
CASA needs to grow a pair and be a regulator. Either declare that CVD is not acceptable, cancel licences and take the ensuing legal challenges, or honour the licences they have issued.
This is classic CASA wanting to impose some unique position they have devised without scrutiny, transparent process and avoiding right of appeal.
