At one stage during Trevors problems Ronelle Stander acted in his position and she was a huge success. But the conflict started and two camps developed in CAA: those for and against Trevor.
I would like to see her back but she has such a senior position in the D o T, (DG I think) that she probably cannot help out.
I believe she has enough clout to do something about CAA and I surprised she hasn't done anything yet.

Devil SA CAA

Latest discussion at the SA Airline Pilots Association Regulations Committee. " Now that the outcry over our proposed Recency Legislation that we submitted to the CAA has died down we better get a letter off to Arthur at Part 121 and ask him to quietly withdraw this AIC ." Between ALPA and SAAFI we should see some more of these Looney Tunes being processed via the Kremlin in Midrand. Go baby!

Recently heard a new inspector arrived at an AMO (AA post to replace 30 year veteran) to do a Cof A on a Cub!!

Wanted to know " Why is the pitot tube so big?? I have never seen one like this before" - pointing to the venturi on the side of the aircraft!!!

WHAT NEXT

Latest news is that responsible managers and inspectors will be required to report personally at CAA for interview pending application for a new licence or amendment!!

Is the venturi guy going to interview a 30 year veteran on his competence to work on aircraft or inspect it?

It's already happening. Inspectors are making wild statements regarding airworthiness and when pulled up about it, admit to not being licenced to work on the type, ie, no clue what they're talking about.

robair.
You really cannot blame 'The Brits' for the state of affairs at CAA OZ. Almost all reflective Ozzies are Brits by extraction. Only problem here is that they amost invariably came from the less intelligent strata of the dregs of what passed for society.
Having said that; I well remember the head of Botswana DCA, some twenty years ago. So, I can sympathize with you with regard to your incumbent's lack of intelligence, if not with regard to his national extraction.
