Just on the topic of security once again.

Would it make everyone feel so much better inside if I told you that those chock lock's that are so commonly used throughout the industry (they're called Chok Lok from memory), I have hacked through and destroyed one using just my leatherman and a metal bar?

Security device my arse!

Above completed all legitimately of course, after some ******** forgot the key, .

ASICs and other worthless things

The whole ASIC thing is a joke. I recently flew into Mt Isa for fuel and decided to grab a coffee from the cafe while there. I had my ASIC in my pocket while casually walking past a Qantas B737. Not a sole challenged me or my non-pilot passenger. After coffee, I had to reenter the airside via the so-called security gate. The punchcode I was given didn't work. I then noticed that someone had 'black and greasyed' a code onto the Airside Warning Sign. I used that code and presto, the security gate opened for all ASIC and non-ASIC personnel. What a FARCE!!!

Mirage

At least you were able to get coffee - which is more than I was able to do the last time I was there (at about 11 am on a Friday).

Anyone who held an ANR before Sept 11 (whever f*cking year that was) should be on auto-ASIC and auto-ASIC renewal, unless their name has subsequently appearred on the Interpol database!

I remember the s**t fight when everyone first applied for the ASIC and how long it took them and the AVID for that matter. It took them 6 months for my CPL with AVID to get to me and now what good is the AVID. Took me 4 month to get my ASIC, and now everyone is coming up for renewal at the same time what has improved in the system that says the same thing is not going to happen again....

I applied for an AVID at about the same time as my ASIC application went in. Took about four months for the ASIC to come through but to date have never recieved the AVID or any correspondence about it!

Has anyone ever recieved both?

Would I be right in saying that the ASIC supersedes the AVID?
That might explain why you didn't get an AVID after receiving your ASIC...

ASIC card renewal - where do I go?

I have a CASA issued ASIC card that expires Oct 07 - so I better get on with renewal, oops you can't renew, so I'll apply for a fresh one. Where do I go?

CASA quotes $186
Aviationid Australia quotes $143

So I won't be going to CASA. Looks like AviationID unless anyone can suggest a better place....... I am located Sydney metro.
