If you understood the history of the turkey who signed the AD instrument and his level of competence, you'd understand why GA in the rest of the world get sensible, cost effective requirements based on evidence and statistics and we in the only third world country where you can drink the water get unmitigated stupidity.
I beg the question "Why go through this farce of "Consultation"? as they call it if it gets totally ignored?
Again another example of CAsA fulfilling the governments policy of squashing GA
Jabba, ever seen the cable runs in a citation?, the AD is for ALL aircraft, ever seen the hourly charge for one of the few 145 maintenance
organisations?
Of course for them that can afford it things like this will just drive them onto foreign registers, so our Numpie regulator will achieve what? A sudden increase in death plunges from 30,000 Ft??? Na, zilch, zero, nothing, just another nail or in this case perhaps another tack in commercial GA's coffin.
Any improvement in safety?? Na, Zilch, zero, nothing.
