Aviation Australia

Heard today of the sudden departure of Paul Brederick, from the long standing position of CEO of Aviation Australia, anyone have any news on this one?

Sorry mate.....misunderstood. Paul is/was a great engineer that used to work on my aircraft. He has had a lot of bad luck in his career and business ventures (Tamair). He landed on his feet with Aviation Australia and has always been prepared to give the kids a go. I remember he and his stunning (ex) wife Vivien riding to work on their Harleys. Thanks for the "good" news.

Rumour has it he has taken a senior flight position with CASA looking after GA and its operations?
Did a great job with training apprentices and put Queensland on the map for aviation

"PA39" I also assume you had BB work on yr 'twin-can'? I used to work with that lot many moons ago & when Vivien was anywhere near the hangar zero work would get done due mainly dribbling guys everywhere!
Paul was a hard worker & a clever boy but he wasn't without his faults either.

Still nothing is forever in aviation
