It's been said before. This whole debacle stinks of everything that is wrong with some aspects of GA.
Non existent CRM, the blurring of lines between public transport and private work. Poor training little or no currency. Poor monitoring (legislation and regulation) by the CAA.
The CVR said it all. The owner had an alleged reputation for handling his employees. All ending in tears.
How mnay of these does it take to tighten up the rules?
