Roger will also provide an update about safety promotion material that has been developed by CASA in the past 18 months that is now available for industry.
The World of Aviation Safety according to Wodger.
For those IOS members (especially those currently unemployed or off work while waiting for their pending AAT hearing or Avmed medical wenewal), here is a chance to be duly enlightened by an up and coming FF doyen of HF & SMS, air safety expert Wodger Wabbit...
With only a couple of days to go wedgister your interest ASAP (HERE). This is a ware opportunity not to be missed, find out what 'Just Culture' weally means according to the acclaimed author of the (plagiarised) 'Chamberpot Weport'.
Be there or be square, bags of peanuts are sold at the door, a percentage of the cost of which will contribute to the essential (twough) funding of future lectures by Wodger...
ps With a CV like that Wodger would be a shoe in for the FF HF Manager position don't you think??
Wodger has been a licenced aircraft engineer in military and general aviation, and involved training, safety and projects including the introduction of the C130J Hercules to service and the early phase of the A330 Air Wefuel project. Since joining CASA Wodger has held a number of woles including airworthiness inspector, safety systems support for airworthiness and for the past 4 years as the Wegional Manager for Sydney Wegion.

Sarcs, an event not to be missed! Is it a black tie event or perhaps a leather mask event? I just got my steel cap boots, IOS t-shirt and Guy Fawkes mask back from the dry cleaners (hard to get those blood spatters removed), so I need to know in advance! Appreciate your help.
You blokes don't seem to know your history very well. Guy Fawkes was part of a failed plot to insert a Catholic monarch on the British throne.
Then again the analogy does work quite well with the group of conspirators that regularly meet on this thread to plot the downfall of the CASA monarchy. Just make sure that your first consignment of powder doesn't go moldy like Guy's did.BTW Richard Hammond did a great program on what would have happened if the plot had been successful.

So it's a conspiracy against a CAsA monarchy.
I always thought it was a Principality, inhabited by a gaggle of overpaid, pompous, primrose tainted, meta ethics challenged, mincing prat's, calling themselves prince's, who deserved preserving, so future generations can chuck rocks at them.
Bring on the revolution.

Who will join me at the meeting...
Hi all.
After an absence from pp, due to a lot of crap, as I'm sure you're all aware of the "goings on".
I am going to the Aeronautical Meeting in Sydney July 31st. Just registered.
Who will join me and voice without fear. Justice and truth need no rehearsal. The bumbling comes when one lies. The bumblings, I feel, I have witnessed for too long.
Have voice-will use.
It's time...safe skies for some...is not safe, fair or just. To stand by a statement of ..."safe skies for all"... is clearly not upheld.
The ATSB, I have four words regarding the "big knobs".
The last three words are .... the big knobs!
Hopefully the outcome of this disgraceful, insulting and soul destroying saga is real safety.
Aviation leaders that lead with integrity, knowledge, honesty and can admit when there is fault. Then, have the insight to see the macro and micro problem, remedy and learn. Tough job description. Suited to the current Av.Leaders...I think not.
Take a pledge
Ignore the bench
Now in a wedge
With Dishonours' stench
As I had a forced plunge into the inner web of Aviation, I have learned so very much over the past four plus years.
What a friggin' mess. Yep, think that sums it all up.
Main-stream media only tickle the facts. Little do they know.
Any one care to join me?

Had a look at the Wabbits CV!!
Aint it remarkable how an ex RAAF baggage handler can pack such a wealth of aviation expertise into a CV yet still maintain a pathological hatred for anyone who actually commits real aviation.
Suddenly those psych. tests the airlines conduct make a lot of sense...
Desperately trying to prevent a lunatic taking over the asylum??
Hmm?? maybe CAsA HR should institute the same requirement!!
Na, cant see it, they would probably find half their staff should be committed, the rest probably should not be allowed out unsupervised!!

Good luck Ziggy! I'm sure that the regular posters who have all sorts of names,insights and solutions into the workings of CASA will be joining you in Sydney on Thursday. If they don't, it will only confirm what I have long suspected. I won't be there as I don't meet the above criteria and I don't live anywhere near Sydney.
Are you going Thorn Bird you live in Sydney?

Hey Leftie...before we get started, correct the thread drift and put your Guy Fawkes comment on the Wuss thread.
You may be assured that every word will be recorded by at least one of the IOS and I hear a whisper that PAIN will naturally be represented.
Its pretty certain that every word will be analyzed against any publicly available text in order to ensure that the author is properly acknowledged when quoted.
and lefty you'll never ever know, if you don't man up and go, watch this space,
luv and kisses TB.

Thanks for the Balls, let us roll on in
Half Inflated life-vest a torch and some FOI extracts etc.
I have some ideas which I will think about over the next couple of days. Great shirt which gets to the point that I will wear, proudly. (I'll selfie and post)
Unity would be great. Politicians advocate change but it is unified people strength that create the change. History shows this.
The momentum is gaining velocity yet still no lift. Time to fly in a different way guys.
I'll sit front row with intense eye contact and take notes. Might even make a paper plane, fly it until it falls then say "oops, was just following regs". "Never mind, if any flaws point towards our regs or investigators, fixable, um, lie"
Pick up plane, put it in my life-vest for safety, then smile.
Jokes aside. I'm going.
I'll drag my honourable balls and use my nut to speak with some crackers.

Ziggy. I had a graphic artist design a logo for us, the Ills' of Society, Society. Let me know if you want the image in a JPEG so it can be printed on a T Shirt. I'm getting several made! If anyone wants one, PM me.
Proud to be an IOS!

You are a gutsy man Jinglie. With an image like that on a t-shirt you will certainly attract attention and I'm not thinking of any amused onlookers. Quite possibly someone, somewhere working for a government security agency wants to know a bit more about what is behind the thinking of someone wearing a t-shirt with images of a skull and passenger aeroplanes on it. Best of luck!

Hey, each to there own. Cool art work, but I couldn't wear it and not be immediately labelled. (As they would not understand).
Whilst there, I'd like to bring attention to facts and justice. Which I believe I have the right to do. So I will.
Presence and connecting with others to speak of the truth regarding the shortcomings of the distorted system/s. Ask logical questions.
Going for the right reasons. To listen, then question.
Anyone else going?
Just hang outside the venue, anonymously. Gather. Support. Grow. Change.
The opportunity is ripe. Let it go?
Negative.

Frau Ziggy, good to have you back, even if only for a short spell. I am sure Flyingfiend and friends will be monitoring your posts enthusiastically, so don't fear them, feel free to embrace your 'limited' freedom of speech, just keep your wording 'safe'
Herr Jinglie, love that art work son Of course 'big bother' won't appreciate it, they see anybody that speaks out or doesn't eat cucumber sandwiches or doesn't live in Can'tberra as a threat. Screw them, I'm gonna get that tattooed on my ass cheek and moon the Skull as he leaves Fort Fumble for the last time!!
Now there is a moderate rumour circling Can'tberra that several IOS have purchased front row tickets to Wodgers speech Wednesday night, and they intend to lob eggs and bags of fresh faeces at him the instant he mentions the word 'robust' for the first time of many....please behave yourselves boys and girls, there may be kiddies in the audience, ok?
'Safe speeches for all'
