Well, I hope AOPA in conjunction with the other associations are also working now on a few other proposals to present and push that will benefit and reinvigorate the industry in a shorter timeframe than the few years (at least) it will take to change the Act and reassess all the regulations.
That's even assuming the Act changes etc. get up which is not hopeful, given what the minister and CASA have already said. |
Forget the Act, AOPA and the industry associations should meet and come up with a succinct list of proposals to push. Also don't see other interested associations or groups flying flags of support, I guess they'll let a few do the heavy lifting here while a few individuals mock those trying to effect positive change. |

Ben, Have you ever applied for a medical to fly an aircraft in Australia? Perhaps if so, when and where?

No quite sure what you are attempting to imply Gerry111.... See attached
How about you show some transparency and post your medical. Let’s all see who the real Gerry111 is. |
Jenna Talia, There was a rumour going around that despite Ben's obvious good work as AOPA's Executive Director, he wasn't actually a person who had actually flown a GA aircraft solo. (And thus my concern that he may not fully appreciate the AVMED issues that concern so many.) But it's great to see that he has a Class2 medical. Has he gone solo yet?
P.S. Perhaps not much point posting a medical with my name and address removed? |

What licences and ratings do you hold, Ben? You need to understand that the people in CASA whispering in the ear of the Secretary of the Department and the advisers to the Minister already know this stuff. |
Oh FFS. Shane Carmody doesn’t even have any type of pilot license. What relevance is Ben’s license, ratings or the size of his dick to what he is doing and has achieved? You seriously suggesting that those in CASA or the minister discuss his ratings amongst themselves? How about you put a stop to this primary school behaviour toward a guy who puts time into engaging young kids at various regional airports, such as Wollongong this weekend encouraging them and their parents toward either a flying career or just flying for enjoyment. Unlike a few on this forum, Ben clearly stands by what he says and is transparent which says a great deal about his character. |
Here’s the reality, Jenna. If Dick’s and AOPA’s campaign results in any plausible threat to the Deputy Prime Minister’s chances of re-election, it’s going to get dirty. Really, really dirty. And personal. Ben should assume that every bit of dirty laundry and potentially embarrassing background will be the subject of public airing. Best to reveal and deal with any of that stuff NOW, so as to reduce the chances of it being used destructively at strategic points during the campaign. I’m on Ben’s side. |
