G’Day
Creamie. I see your former colleague is still in there, batting for the home team.
Fairly substantive evidence I would have thought?
(i) verbal aviation industry rumour;
(ii) Internet aviation bulletin board PPRuNe (professional pilots' rumour network);
(iv) CASA safety reporting hotline complaints from concerned and reputable (anonymous?)
aviation industry sources;
(vii) Alert Bulletins from the Australian Transport Safety Bureau's Confidential Aviation Incident Report system ("CAIR"), which appear to be from your (anonymous?)
pilots.
I guess the Commissioner is suggesting one can’t be a “little bit pregnant” (or guilty), as the case may be:
“(f) the applicant's private licences have not been cancelled so I infer he is still regarded as a safe pilot; “
As the matter has been referred to future criminal proceedings, the Commissioner’s findings appear appropriate?
“….staying the implementation or operation of the decision under review.”
I concur, it will be very interesting to see how CASA’s decisions holds up in a real Court. And if they don't, one wonders at the potential for civil litigation for recovery of lost earnings etc?
You've been quiet lately? I missed you.....
