In The US flying is a gift. In Australia flying is a privilege. When granted that privilege, one had a right to exercise it. The trouble now is everything is becoming gratuitous and one wonders if it's all worth it. Pilots are forced to fight for that privilege and are having a difficult time exercising what is left of it. CAsA are making aviation safety an uncertainty and people "WILL" beat the system because it is natural to do so. The travelling public should be advised of the broken incompetent and dangerous system.


All pilots have a duty of care to advise the public they are operating in a bureaucratic induced fog that refuses to lift. You are Pilot in Command. It's no good saying after the crash, "I told you so" or "I was acting under orders". The Nuremburg Trials found this excuse lacking.


It's too late for Truss to blame the other mob for this. He had his chance and passed. He now has another chance to rectify the problem and he needs to be put on notice that if he fails he alone will be responsible.


Do anything, do something, or be branded that apathetic coward!


At least sign the petition and start another. Let Brandis know what is going on and don't assume he knows anything. Write him a letter before his interim report is published.
