I seriously don't know what sort of clowns work at CASA.

The amount of times, I have heard stories of them being slow and mucking up paperwork.

Happened to me a few times and just recently aswell

Can't believe these numptys are in charge of our aviation safety

dronery....

sorry about the guy that lost the job re paperwork.
Know the feeling... been there, had that done.
Applied for CHTR to AWK AOC. Jumped thru all the hoops. At the final Ops inspection, asked to buy a new First Aid kit and a Cargo Net.
"Fax me a copy of the Invoices and I'll get your start approval late pm or tomorrow". HA ha bloody ha....!

SEVEN months later when the business opportunity and the aeroplane long gone.. the approval turned up after a few long distance calls with much shuffling around from "Fred" to "Bill" to "Don".. who may or may not have been dealing with the file.
I fell off my chair in the end, when the file was found, one guy actually apologised for the delay. He must have been a newbie.!

The outcome was just less of GA.
Does Casa give a rats ar$e at yr business loss due their incompetence... of course not.

I had the opportunity much later to check that file and see for myself the processing "history"... it had been on 2 desks of many, for 6 weeks each while "Lyle" and "Rupert" had their annual holidays or "stress" leave.

THis is the idiotic burden that Aviation in Oz has to suffer, and suffer and will keep suffering, which proves that Casa is an ongoing clusterfcuk.

And I did run into that FOI that made that infamous statement some years later... he was then a "consultant".(twice as useless, at three times the cost)
And was going to take 2 or three weeks to approve a single page Ops Manual addition THAT WAS ALREADY CASA APPROVED.!

Is this country heading for a breakdown, or what...!!!
