Personal decision making can be good or bad with any pilot of any age. imho
CAsA has a belief system that is PPL-Bad, CPL -Good. Its invalid.
I'd rather fly with a 4000 hr ppl than a 200 hr cpl without a wealth of experience and vital decision making. But I'd pay attention with both.
And I've had a few low time CPLs try and kill me, too
In court, as a PPL.. a CAsA w*nker (and an ambush witness) gave a lengthy dissertation about dangerous PPLs and how they cause all the accidents.
CAsA has to make a "safety" case out of it even if that wasnt the issue.
No mention was made of course, that over the period of harassment by CAsA, there were SEVEN light charter accidents in NQ alone with 21 fatalities.
Says it all really.
