Unhappy employee/s (ex)?

17 page bomb shell - Interesting Monday!

Union fingerprints???

I think I did see a report that the ALAEA submitted it to CAsA, but I doubt it was Sunday morning. A bit of a media leak?

One would hope the ALAEA first approached REX about the concerns.

Not the union at all, you clearly dont work at this company, sometimes enough is enough. Perhaps rather than make assumptions think about the Boeing issues, many spoke up, no one listened, including the FAA. Same here, would you be happier to see a SAAB in a smoking heap in the ground. Those who were meant to listen and care wouldnt, including CASA, what are LAMEs meant to do, let people die??

Behind a paywall.

A 17-page document filed by the Australian Licenced Aircraft Engineers Association to the Civil Aviation Safety Authority alleges a “culture of fear” within Regional Express (REX), claiming management is intimidating maintenance crews out of reporting defects.

EBA time, or just now the Federal elections are over??
Aeroplanes that old, if you can't find some corrosion, all that proves is you haven't looked hard enough.
Tootle pip!!

PS: If something is serious, as opposed to just bitching, CASA prefer you don't put it in writing, written evidence is so inconvenient.

Does everyone forget that REX Group donates hundreds of thousands of dollars to the Nationals every year... and their Chairman is ex Nationals Deputy PM John Sharpe?

Has everyone forgotten that the only "fallout" within the REX Group management from the PelAir Westwind debacle (with similar whiff of managerial/cultural pressure) was that Wicko walked into a job at CASA?

The allegations made of management pressure are entirely consistent with everything we have seen before in the REX Group. Has anyone here ever been in a Management meeting with Lim Kim Hai?

So worst case scenario what will happen..will the entire REX fleet of Saab's be grounded?

I have family who live in Carnarvon (CVQ) and I was looking at the facebook page called "Carnarvon Notice Board" and someone posted the article about REX (REX flies to CVQ) and now Carnarvon residents will be or are already in a panic with some (I read the comments) people wanting to cancel their airfares.

The plot thickens?
 

Speaking to engineers yesterday. Although there's always a worry about management (which I believe is in every company), in this case it's an employee who lost their privileges due to negligence and is wanting revenge. In terms of prop corrosion the engineering department as a whole has much more restrictive parameters than that set by GE post prop loss incident.
