Read the "Press Release" on the CASA website about Part 61,Part 141,Part 142 et al and by the time I had finished reading, I thought that I had not read such an arrogant, condescending "politispeak" document in a long time.
A raft of ill thought out changes, conceived without sufficient regard for industry and poorly prepared for implementation, and they want to blame the pilots....?:mad: |
Maybe we could get another subject onto their agenda - PBR = Performance Based Regulation.
They'd be out of a job ! happy days, |

raven, considering the arrogant c u next tuesday in charge of the joint, is it any wonder?
|
imagine the mindset if you will, or the degree of myopic arrogance, needed to spend $200 million on a rewrite of the regulations and never once have an inkling of an idea that changing the regs negated all of the inter country agreements on cross recognition of operations.
I am stunned at the incompetence. |
Industry (IOS) quotes from Phearless Phelan article
PP: Understanding the rules – Opinion
Preamble to industry quotes...:( ..."Those repeated assertions prompted irate responses from individuals and organisations. Some didn’t mind being identified while others explained that they held various CASA certificates and a wife and kids to feed. One actually drew our attention to a fast-track process buried in a CASA manual that helps you identify somebody as a fit and proper person {WTF??}. So we’ve de-identified the lot..."

Good catch GRIFFO!
Also from AMROBA this from their latest news letter, VOL 10 Issue 11:D:D:
Back in Business — New Government Warren Truss has fulfilled one of the promises in the Government’s Aviation Policy Paper by announcing a Review Team to look at just about all aspects of aviation including government departments and agencies. Lowering costs and red tape is the key to the government’s aviation policy — this is easy to achieve in aviation. It was also the basis of regulatory reform for the last 20 plus years but has been such an abject failure up till now. This government has turned the spotlight onto the government departments and agencies involved with the aviation industry. One cannot imagine support for this Review coming from his own Department let alone CASA or the ATSB. Mike Mrdyck, Secretary of the Department of Infrastructure; Mike Dolan, ATSB; Allan Hawke, Chair of CASA Board; John McCormick, CEO of CASA and CASA’s Senior Executive would have been against such a review. The terms of reference for the review clearly demonstrates that this government does not have confidence in the current direction of aviation reform by those persons listed above. AMROBA membership supports the all encompassing review and hope they have enough time to properly analyse the aviation system properly. We appreciated the LNP policy stating that: “ Labor’s approach to aviation policy over the past six years has seen cost after cost added to the bottom lines of airlines and airports, pilots and passengers. Together, these measures have made the Australian industry increasingly uncompetitive internationally and have seen many smaller aviation providers struggle to survive. Government imposed red tape is beginning to overwhelm many smaller and medium-sized businesses which struggle to cope with changing, complicated and confusing requirements.” To achieve this massive change, they also recognised that they needed to: reform the structure of the Civil Aviation Safety Authority; revitalise the General Aviation Action Agenda; enhance aviation skills, training and development. AMROBA will lobby for: A more responsive CASA structure that holds a senior individual responsible for standards, regulatory services and oversight for discrete industry sectors must be an outcome. A 3 tier legislative system where ICAO standards & practices are promulgated by CASA as ‘aviation safety standards’ referred to in CASRs must also be an outcome. A FAR based system for the non-airline sectors must be another outcome. |
casa is out of touch with the Aviation Industry and so is mccormick
The following gives a breakdown of the way casa goes about it's business of consultation.
This article I have found shows how casa has in it's "supposed" consultation with industry, muscled the results. Has CASA represented Industry in Regulatory change ? Part 61 debacle | Assistance to the Aviation Industry |
Will the Angry Man and his bearded 'mini-me' be attending the AMROBA meeting? If so I hope he has the Comcar fuelled up this time :ok:
It is becoming more and more blatantly obvious that all levels of the industry have had a gutful of CASA either postulating or blaming everything that fails on the IOS. The smart people are the ones not working for the bureaucracy. My understanding is that the Australian aviation industry employs approximately 100 000 souls directly. Is it time for a mass vote of no confidence in the bureaucratic silo's and their wrecking ball? |
casa is out of touch with the Aviation Industry Part 61
The helicopter industry association released the following:
However, the relationship between CASA and industry working groups (the latter are volunteers) soured when CASA advised the media ‘the delay was caused by the need to give the aviation industry more time to prepare for the commencement of the new regulations. Despite CASA’s education and information campaign on the new licensing regulations many pilots and people working in flying training are only starting to understand the new rules’. This was a disappointing statement and no doubt politically motivated as CASA is about to undergo a major external audit at the direction of the Deputy Prime Minister. The AHIA on behalf of the helicopter industry does not accept the CASA media report, as the ‘lack of understanding’ is due to errors or unreasonable changes in the nearly 1,300 pages of material needing review and re-working in many areas.
Part 61 Industry asks why CASA can?t get it right Politics involved?? | Assistance to the Aviation Industry |
casa is out of touch with the Aviation Industry and so is mccormick
and so does the RAAA:
The degree to how far out of touch casa is is revealed in the Part 61 debacle “It is unfortunate that CASA, in its media release, appears to blame industry entirely for the delay in the roll-out of new licensing regulations,” he said. “It is another example of the breakdown in the relationship between CASA and operators, a breakdown that is hurting the government and the industry. "The CASA Board and senior management must understand that the genuine concerns about the timing of the roll-out came from industry and within CASA. “After ten years of development due to CASA delays, it’s far better to take a little more time and get it right than rush it now and have to clean up a mess.” RAAA says ?No to CASA? | Assistance to the Aviation Industry |
Oh c'mon UITA, you know that helicopters are a pain in CAsA's ass. Silly little two man cubicles with a rotor! They are as annoying as GA, freighters, AG's and Warbirds. Ground the lot of them, ban them even. Every time there is an annoying crash it ruins Herr Skulls weekend!
Unless it is a wide body jet the Screaming Skull doesn't give a gram of pony pooh! And as for manufacturing, engineering or even avionics or airframe maintainers oh no no no, we don't want them bellows Big Chief Angry, get rid of them all, now! Curse AMROBA, the Helisexuals, ASIC holders, aerodromes, Ma and Pa Kettle and the old man who lived in a shoe.....all IOS, the lot of them, what is the world coming to, poor poor CAsA, we don't have time for this sh#t. And you can take the Senators too, Channel 7, Chris Reason and those families pushing for justice such as the Hares and Urquharts! Please leave CAsA alone so they can do what they do best..................SFA. |
Just got the CASA "aviation Safety Yearbook"
Chariman's remarks from Allan Hawke on the inside cover: "..... with flight crew licencing and the aircraft operations suite (of regulatory packages) on schedule to be delivered next year." Do they actually believe their own spin? |
