Am I right in saying that aviation in Australia lacks vision?
From what I have read, there just does not seem to be an individual or organisation that has the political muscle to get the aviation industry to where it should be. That may seem blindingly obvious but the question is why? Why doesn't the electorate understand aviation better? There certainly don't seem to be any votes in it.
It shouldn't be left to the regulators to set the agenda for aviation in Australia. There has to be a better, coordinated way forward, surely? How do we turn things around so that the needs of the industry drive the actions of the regulators?
