Brexit
If the UK does leave the EU customs union cross border movement is going to be a pain in the ar**, visas, car documents, aircraft documents, import duty, VAT and delays. Changing to a new regulatory system for airworthiness is going to mean a lot of time and cost - again, we have got used to a free and easy travel and shipping, forget all that

The indignity and inconvenience for travelling that we have to suffer as a result of terrorism is bad enough, but now Brexiters want to compound it, regardless of cost. It's a boondoggle!

I have never been too impressed with job hoppers.
It usually takes six months to hire someone, have them underperform and then get rid of them.
Not saying that is the case with Mr. Delafield.
Seems rather young too - does he even speak "aviation" at, 27/28, with what seems to be no experience of it I wonder.
My assumption here is that he will be heading a group of technical experts and his job will be to do the diplomatic thing and write reports; not matter who got the job we would all no doubt have concerns and likely the process and the outcome will please no one in the short to medium term.
