Hi L B,
I thought it was. It was when I worked there, and I've heard nothing to the contrary. Nothing 'unusual' about that.
I see its now a 'Govt Owned Organisation'. (Thanks for the heads-up)
Not that that bit really matters...
Interesting hypothesis though eh?
Imagine the major responsibility of AsA shifts to the making of dividends for the shareholders.
ATC become like bank clerks... and paid accordingly.....imagine a clearance via ATM??
It really would be the death of GA as 'we' know it.
And, not beyond the realms of possibility, if AOPA has its way.....
I can imagine lots of 'Nosar no Details' as they used to be known.
I wonder if they thought of a 'Plan B'...??
No Cheers
