AFAP Opposes Changes to the Act
Folks,
I note from today's Australian, the AFAP is using the Max8 issue to start a campaign against the recently announced changes to the Civil Aviation Act 1988 ---- the ones requiring CASA to consider the cost of regulation. AFAP have not, in my opinion, learnt much in all the years of their existence --- 60 or so ---- excessive and ineffective "over the top" regulation has cost many pilot (and potential member) jobs over the years. When I get the time (or perhaps somebody else could) I will put a copy of the articles from the Australian today ---- seems a few GA companies going broke as a result of (over) regulation is neither here nor there to the AFAP. Tootle pip!! |
Looks like the pampered airline pilots strike again. It’s hard to farhom their motives though. |
Didn't the DPM put forward a proposed change that effectively does nothing?
|
Seems like AFAP regards GA and recreational aviation as a form of air pollution. either that or the improbable conclusion is that they are totally ignorant of the risk management science underlying their own trade. |
So the AFAP believes the proposed scam amendment to the Act would have the effect of encouraging more Max8-like issues? I have difficulty in believing the AFAP could descend to that level of muppetry. There must be more to this. |
Lead balloon,
Perhaps not surprising if what I hear is true. Doesn't the AFAP membership have a lot of CASA personnel as their members or am I mixing that up with the other one? |

Both of those thoughts are spot on the mark. Particularly rejection of fundamental principles of risk management --- "absolute safety" is the preferred term. Thorn Bird, Again, spot on.
