This is a silly place, they talk about establishing ICAO standards and norms but its full of corruption.
This was a place and still is where serving Airforce personal given CAA jobs , one guy managed to pass his ATPL while serving as a C130 instructor in the Airforce and Direc Ops at CAA, another got the job when this guy left.
DG is been backed by couple ex Airline Captains who think they owne aviation in SL, Sl will never move forward if these two parties are involved
1/ Airoforce ( retired or serving) because they d not know Civil operations
2/ Ex Airline Captains who think CAA is their retirement job , these uys joined the airlines 25 years ago and they simply dont know Flying set up in school and Domestic and really stubborn not to give these opportunities for young qualified people.
