Part 119. So Rewarding
The consultation process is a requirement, but the main issue is that some of it's been done years ago and is still being used as 'the industry agreed' but now often out of context. Working groups such as Part 138 haven't even signed off on the Part but it's been put out anyway. Worse, parts have been developed in relative isolation and don't gel, and the whole mess has in my view turned into a ridiculously verbose, convoluted and in places very inappropriate reg set.
The idea of plain, simple and effective rules (as required by the Act) seems to be too hard a concept for some people to grasp, to not only the industry's detriment, but CASA's itself.

So any flaws are the industry's fault?
I could spend the entirety of every waking day of the rest of my life pointing out, for free, the patent errors and operational stupidity in the ever-increasing mountain of regulatory dross. But I've much better things to do than the job that was supposed to be done by dozens of people on six figure salaries for decades.

LB, I don't think we need any more evidence than CASA said they were going to 'harmonise' the regs with new CASRs to align with the FAA and EASA in about 1988 or 1989 - NZCAA said the same. Here we are 33 years later and CASA still has not introduced the full set of CASRs - NZ had it done by 1990.
