It gets funnier. Boy wonder to move from GM to head up a review of the academy. No doubt to move to GM ATC if that becomes available through promotion!!!
I believe that 'Plane Talking' exposing systemic training issues led to the crucifixion.

I know where she will pop up next, somewhere that those very same talents can be exercised to the full - Fort Fumble.
She will make a fine addition to CASA. All that bureaucratic experience, a reputation for incompetence and arrogance, not to mention the ability and knowledge of how to spin up figures and waste taxpayer money...oh yes, a fine likely addition indeed.

Ding Dong................
RS - At least the bloke is an ATC and has actually worked in the college as an instructor.
And I got more filthy rumours that indicate it isn't finished at AM
When the full story of the product that was produced by AM gets out, once again the stakeholders are entitled to ask if their money was spent wisely.
Another ASA training experiment gone wrong

Correct but has matured and prefers his full first name 
TFN and his crew were told many times about the college probs. Im guessing it will be another coat of teflon.
How many apointed and sacked now? Must be well over a dozen GMs alone.

Yeah, puts this into context?
Our values
Shook my head when I heard about that one.
Perhaps the most famous quote from the late Victor Chernomyrdin (and this is now virtually a proverb/aphorism in the Russky speaking world) may be more appropriate...
"We tried our best, but it turned out as always."
Our values
- Excellence – we are the best we can be

A mate of mine related this story to us.
Sacked person's famous question many months after being in the position to staff, after attending an important cocktail party with 'THE MINISTER' and being tackled by Chief pilots of VB and SIA who asked about all the extra miles of useless flying in SIDS and STARS:- Why can't the planes out of Sydney going to Brisbane take off on the north runway and the ones flying West take off on that runway and the ones for Melbourne and Hobart take off on 16?
The word is she still doesn't know and doesn't think she needs to know why they can't.
Managers manage. They reckon they don't have to know anything about the industry they're managing.
She'll be replaced by an equally incompetent 'manager' whith the same ideas.
That's how the world we live in works.
Glad I'm out of the industry!

Well, she was part of the 'ATC hate club' well known to bag ATC's in public. It kind of amused me to wonder how you can run a training college when you despise the end product!
And as far as RS was concerned, he was an instructor in the college when I was there. So he's done a stint as an ATC and an instructor in the environment which he'll manage. At least it's a step in the right direction.
