Folks,
Mr. Skidmore has talked about "fairness", and how unfair it would be to those who have already fitted $$$$ ADS-B, if it was further delayed. Also that those who have not fitted ADS-B get an "unfair" financial advantage by not having to fund ADS-B.
I would strongly argue that such "reasons" are beyond CASA power.
Just have a look at the Act, CASA can ONLY make decisions based on safety grounds, CASA CAN NOT make decisions based on "fairness" or commercial grounds.
In short, the reasons CASA have given for NOT doing as was effectively promised in Tamworth, delaying the low level mandate to 2021, are not a lawful exercise of CASA power.
Tootle pip!!
