Why does CASA allow twin engine ETOPS operation at all?
So apply your reasoning to setting standards for Community Service Flights.
What standards should Community Service Flights meet? Walk us through all of the matters you take into consideration, and how you weigh up the costs and benefits and relative importance of each, to set the those standards.

Thanks Curtain. Personally I have always been comfortable with the decisions made internationally in relation to certification standards.
That’s why I was instrumental in the introduction of CAA acceptance of first of type from the five leading countries.
The problem I have is with 9a of the act. It would be great to have the act reflect what CASA often does in practice.

And as I said in my earlier post, an ETOPS/EDTO challenge is not the appropriate argument to support your problem with 9a.
You need to come up with a better one. The ETOPS/EDTO argument can be shot out of water. Surely you can find something better for your 9a challenge.
If I was looking for one, I’d be looking for an example of significant reduction of important services to rural communities caused by CASA’s apparent adherence to 9a with undue cost/benefit. That would get community support, raise headlines, and ruffle CASA and Government feathers. Isn’t that what you’re after?
