......and as the numbers of pilots decline, the AVMED staff numbers will actually increase.
The levels of surveillance will increase massively until you require an annual gastroscopy and colonoscopy.
To put that another way, if staffing numbers at AVMED were required by regulation to be strictly directly proportional to the number of pilots, then we wouldn't have this problem.
To put that yet another way, why doesn't AOPA demand an "efficiency dividend" from CASA in the form of direct cuts to AVMED staffing?
