casa and the Show Cause Notice
More reading for you.
One of the most iniquitous actions of the casa machine and the 4.55 pm Friday action is the Show Cause notice. The following was published at: If ever you get a Show Cause letter from CASA and bears some reading. Quote:

Well I wondered what happened to this thread. Nice to see it replaced.
At some risk, may I suggest this be part of the pre flight regeime with the aide memoir at hand for such emergencies. |

Seems the same as FAA, when a pilot/mechanic breaks the rules their license is in jeopardy.
I prefer Norther Africa, pay some dollars and problem disappears |

casa and the Courts – “Watch out”
From “The Division of the Commission constituted under the Australian Law Reform Commission Act 1996 (Cth)”in 2001, reporting to Parliament in November 2002 under the Chair of:
President – Professor David Weisbrot Deputy President – Dr Kathryn Cronin (to June 2001) Members Ian Davis (full-time Commissioner from 13 June 2000) Brian Opeskin (full-time Commissioner from 31 July 2000) Professor Anne Finlay (full-time Commissioner from 12 November 2001) Justice Ian Coleman (part-time Commissioner) Justice John von Doussa (part-time Commissioner) Hank Spier (part-time Commissioner from September 2000) Justice Mark Weinberg (part-time Commissioner) say in part: Quote:
Now that tells us how the general direction for regulation, penalties and “show cause” is to move. Further, it makes some very specific requirements, putting the onus, onto the regulator to specific ways of doing things of a legal nature. Question is why don’t casa behave this way now?? Read ON: Quote:

Andt RR,
Unfortunately, Australians have no constitutional protection similar to the Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution. The Australian common law rights against self incrimination are very limited, and statute law trumps the common law, unless it is found to be unconstitutional by the High Court of Australia. Indeed, there is a large body of law here, both State and Commonwealth, where you can be compelled to answer, including being forced to incriminate yourself, with attached severe penalties for non-compliance. Sadly, the whole US ethos of “freedom” has little support in Australia, by and large we seem to be very accepting and tolerant of, or even demanding of, levels of Government imposed legislated control, that would be anathema in the US. Indeed, all too many Australians seem to feel uncomfortable with the very idea of the level of constitutionally protected personal freedom that is taken for granted in the US. The general approach to defamation in the US is one example, if you are any kind of a public figure, politician or similar, you just have to wear the most outrageous slurs. The recent inquiry into media content here would never happen in the US, the First Amendment guarantees of freedom of speech is taken very literally by the US High Court. Further, “they wouldn’t have made those accusations if they weren’t true” or “where there’s smoke, there’s fire” are very common mindsets, particularly in aviation, were practitioners are very ready to believe their worst about their peers. Having said all that, the “say nothing” advice is good, and police or other “trained investigators” here use all the same techniques as shown in the video, in pursuit of successful prosecutions, don’t give them a free kick. There is a famous case, years ago, of a DH 82 very publicly flying under the Sydney Harbour Bridge. DCA ( I think it was at the time) demanded that the pilot of the aircraft admit he or she was the pilot. “Nobody” saw who climbed into the aircraft, or who climbed out, so DCA had no “independent witness” proof of the identity of the pilot, only a potential admission by the pilot. There was no dispute over the identity of the aircraft, or its owner. The alleged pilot said nothing —- and I mean nothing. He or she did not deny they were the pilot, so they could never be accused of giving false evidence, they just said nothing, zilch, naught. DCA never succeeded in establishing the identity of the pilot, and the matter was finally allowed to die. As far as “air safety” is concerned in Australia, “air safety” is such a holy cow that even “proof beyond a reasonable doubt” all too often produces “facts” that would only be accepted in an aviation environment as “evidence”. Tootle pip!! PS: One of the sad things I come across, from time to time, is “somebody” being so keen to assist CASA investigators, to try and show what reasonable persons they are, that they wind up admitting guilt to things that CASA didn’t know about. Not keeping it zipped can prove to be very expensive — don’t back your chances in a field where you are a naive novice. |

I agree with Leaddie’s point about the cultural differences between the USA and Australia.
In the USA, government is grudgingly tolerated and kept under close rein by a populace whose presumptive position is that any interference with an individual’s freedom is bad. Government in the USA is a creation of the populace and there to facilitate the aspirations of the populace. Government is required to stay in its place, like a pet dog. And, like a pet dog, government in the USA occasionally tries to expand its territory and take a higher status in the pack, in which case it gets a wet newspaper across the nose. In Australia, government came first, and still comes first. The population comprises subjects of the monarch who are, as subjects, presumptively to be controlled. The government has powers for the peace, order and good government ‘of’ Australians, not ‘for’ Australians. Australians are the pet dogs, choosing between temporary kennel managers. The choice fools them into believing they’re ‘free’. |

Another odd facet of the Australian psyche is the inability to separate an opinion from the person expressing the opinion.
If you’ve actually read, objectively, the opinions I’ve expressed on PPRuNe, you’d see that I occasionally agree with the opinion expressed by Leaddie, and I occasionally disagree. The USA also does ‘debate’ better than Australia. Much better. These fora are supposed to demonstrate and promote substance over personality. For which kennel managers do you vote, Thorn Bird? |

While I don’t disagree with anything you have written, Leadie, I do suggest relying on any law to defend yourself is fraught with danger and usually doomed from the beginning. A better approach is to slow and frustrate the ‘legal’ process as much as is practicable until the political will to prosecute has been exhausted. Keeping mum about everything you can do is merely the first and, possibly the best weapon you have.

Last time I was “ramped” it took a considerable amount of self restraint to prevent me becoming the defendent in an assault case. Talking to idiots simply educates them.
Next time I will claim I am being “stalked”. |

Up-into-the-air: You completely misunderstand the functions and powers of the ALRC. Please do some more research.
All: The video at RR’s link is interesting, and instructive, for a number of reasons, one of which is the manifestation of one cultural similarity between the USA and Australia. Those of you who were watching and listening to both speakers, closely, would have noticed to whom they attributed much of the propensity to misconstrue the position and evidence of even the innocent defendants. It’s a little like the propensity of the ‘industry’ in Australia. Mirrors ready. Mirrors up. And don’t confuse criminal actions and administrative actions. If someone receives a ‘show cause’ notice in Australia, the recipient is, like anyone in the USA, perfectly entitled to say nothing. But the regulator in Australia is also perfectly entitled to proceed to make an administrative decision, with adverse affects for the recipient of the ‘show cause’ notice’, despite silence from the recipient. For example, if the Australian regulator sends a notice asking the recipient to show cause as to why the regulator should not cancel the recipient’s pilot’s licence on the ground that the recipient has breached the direction requiring specified tolerances from Class C or E or Restricted airspace to be applied to the intended flight path of aircraft of which the recipient was PIC, and the recipient says nothing in response, the regulator is entitled to cancel the licence provided the regulator finds, as a matter of fact and despite silence from the PIC and an absence of a successful prosecution for the ‘offences’, that the breaches occurred. Now, while everyone’s spitting their wine, whiskey, coffee, tea, cool-aid or medication across the room, I’d suggest grabbing that mirror again. |

Who gets to determine the relevant facts for such an administrative decision? Don’t confuse ‘silence’ (of the fifth ammendment variety) with an absence of communication. You absolutely need to correspond with the regulator in such a matter. The ‘fifth ammendment’ part just guides what statements or claims you make, which is preferably nothing, excepting perhaps to dispute the accuracy of the facts or for pointing out where opinion or allegation has been confused for fact. There’s absolutely no secret recipe for any dispute of this type or more generally. The strategy must be put together based on the specifics of the case, but the starting point is always to give the prosection/regulator as little ammunition as possible and, inasmuch as it is possible, to question or dispute anything they do have. |

The only appeal from an administrative decision taken by CASA, after internal review, is a review by the AAT.
The only appeal to a decision by the Tribunal is to the Federal Court and then only on a question of law. There is no review of the merits of the decision. I wonder how a constitutional argument would go on the basis that a licence is property and the revocation of a licence by administrative means is an acquisition of property requiring s51 (xxxi) compensation on just terms?

Hmmmm … not sure that’s entirely correct. Not aware of any internal review processes in CASA but, in any event, the option of asking a court to intervene is always there in principle. Having said that, the availability of review by the AAT will usually result in courts deciding not to intervene until after the AAT has looked at the matter (and, to anticipate Up-into-the-air’s possible comment: No, the intervention of the courts in these circumstances never involves a hearing, by the ‘peers’ of the ‘accused’, of the case against ‘the accused’.) Quote:
Hmmmm … not sure that’s entirely correct, at least on the limitation of appeals to the Federal Court. Your next question is an example of an issue that could go directly from the AAT to the High Court. And the line between what’s a review of a question of law versus a question of fact and merits has always been very blurry for me. My brain is probably not big enough, because occasionally the court’s decision seems to me to take into account sympathy for the applicant…. Quote:
So if my Altzheimer’s becomes unmanageable and a licensing authority revokes my bus driver’s licence that I need in order to earn an income to feed myself, that’s an acquisition of property other than on just terms, for which I’m entitled to be compensated? Happy days! My Altzheimer’s is not as depressing any more…. The point of administrative actions against licences etc is that the holder no longer satisfies the criteria for holding the licence etc. Failure to satisfy those criteria may not be, and in most cases is not, a crime, and in many cases may be a genuine tragedy with profound consequences for lots of people. But the criteria for holding the licence are either met or they’re not, and the relevant procedures, the courts and tribunals with jurisdiction, the evidential burdens and processes to work out whether the criteria are met, or not, have little, if anything, to do with juries of peers, or smoking guns, or rights to silence, or beyond reasonable doubt or any of the other folklore that circulates about these matters. |

If, as Creampuff states (and I have nothing to contradict him on this) the Administrator (i.e. CASA) gets to determine the relevant facts of the case without any independent review process then once you’re in the system, you are basically stuffed. (edit: I see Creampuff has qualified the situation, if not clarified it, whilst I was writing this).
The only way to avoid getting in the system are to metaphorically fly under the radar, or failing that, to keep sweet with the guys that might take you there. The latter has more than a whiff of potential for corruption… Nothing about this is surprising in my view, since I consider the state to be nothing more than a protection racket with a public relations department. Those that work in the various government departments know they are being paid with the proceeds of protection money and they aren’t about to give up their little cushy number easily. When you get a chance to see through the cracks in the veneer of democratic legitimacy, it shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone to see a few victims being bent over and reamed by the ‘enforcers’. Oh, and kaz3g, save your money and resist the temptation to take your legal arguments to court. You will only make the laywers rich and achieve little for humanity despite your best endeavours and intentions. edit to add: I think a test of whether a licence is property or not would be whether it is transferable in some way, or not. In the case of a FCL, I’d say it was definitely not transferable and therefore not property. A water licence or a commercial fishing licence might be examples of a licences that are transferable and therefore could be considered property. Last edited by Andy_RR; 8th May 2012 at 20:50. |

Clinically, Creampuff is correct (again), but who decided this and on what grounds ?? – and here’s the rub. Quote:
No – it’s all just a bit too cosy for me, too light on proof, too long on practice, far too subjective and wide open to corruption, in the way that total power corrupts. Currently CASA uses this is flawed system aided and abetted by a system which is obliged by it’s charter to assist in the bastardry. No one could afford to challenge them on Constitutional grounds though they have had a hammering every time out of the box, even then the administration would just find some wriggle room and slither out from under (again). I’m not sure just what CASA think they are trying to achieve, but it has sweet sod all to do with improving safety or gaining the confidence, respect and cooperation of the industry, domestically or internationally. The latest rubbish related to J* apples and Tiger oranges has the FAA rolling in the aisles. |

Kaz3g and others, CASA is way ahead of you: A pilots licence is a priviledge it isn’t property.
Of course, since it is a priviledge, and not a right or a property, it can be revoked at will – the rules of natural justice and procedural fairness, as now being unctously applied to the cases of Peter Slipper and Craig Thompson, don’t apply to you. Follow the rules, obey the law and hope to Christ you don’t come to the attention of CASA for any reason. |

Thompson can be granted some presumption of innocence, but it’s interesting to note the Author of “the fair work Act” and instigator of “Fair Work Australia”, one, J Gillard now wants procedural fairness from the hand of the prosecuting authority which aparantly isn’t Fair Work Australia”. Slipper on the other hand is entitled to no presumption of innocence given that the above Author of “the fair work Act”, included a reversal of the burden of proof from the accuser to the accused. A little ploy designed to give the worker the moral high ground over the employer in matters such as sexual harrassment. |

Adventures in Blunderland
Last nights meeting of the Bar Room Barristers began and ended with matters constitutional. We ventured into the deep murky waters of whether CASA using the AAT ‘system’ instead of a court process was actually unconstitutional.
At the risk of a sharp rebuff from Creampuff (accepted in good spirit), and given there are super legal eagles who deal with these heady matters, which I accept as being way beyond the ken of mere mortals; I beg some indulgence from the peers in the name of education. We probably made every mistake in the lawyers handbook, but after a few cold ones, it made some sense. So, let the simplistic questions stand. Is using the AAT in the CASA style unconstitutional ??. (Civil liberties etc.). |

CASA doesn’t use the AAT.
People affected by CASA’s decisions use the AAT. The AAT has jurisdiction to review a very broad range of administrative decisions at the Commonwealth level. That’s Commonwealth policy. (And, to continue on a theme, if you don’t like it, it’s pointless arguing with CASA about it.) But you could give it go: lobby the Commonwealth AG to remove the AAT’s jurisdiction to review CASA’s decisions. CASA would love you for it, I suspect …. The AAT gives the person affected by a decision the opportunity to have it reviewed, on the merits, by someone external to the agency which made the decision. Take that away, and all you have left is judicial review, which is very narrow, very expensive and has nothing to do with juries of peers or beyond reasonable doubt or any of the other folklore that persists. By the way, numerous people on the AAT are Federal Court judges. Here’s the fundamental aspect of AAT review that jars with the kinds of people that gnash and wail about CASA on this forum: If you seek review of a CASA decision, you will almost invariably have to give evidence if you want the AAT to understand aspects of the matter about which you alone know, or have first-hand knowledge. And if you’re a bush lawyer or smart*arse who thinks the AAT won’t see through your half-truths, selective-memory, or god’s-gift-to-aviation attitude, you are – not to put too fine a legal point on it – stuffed. |

Naiveté meets the beast
Thanks Creampuff – we got that far all on our lonesome, understand the way of it. No problems. That leaves a couple of annoying little details hanging in the breeze; to debate them fully would take all week and would no doubt have to be ‘case’ specific. As stated, we are but babes in the wood so to take a broader view on lets call them, ‘types’ of cases, such as the suspension of a license or parts thereof.
Given that CASA can and do arbitrarily, without having to provide a shred of evidence cancel or suspend at will, effectively preventing that person from earning a living, based on a catch all excuse of public safety is bollocks. For every 10 that fight perhaps one ever ends up back where they were. Review Max Davies case for a prime example of one of a dozen. Max v The Beast. The AAT as you quite rightly point out ‘belongs’ to the regulator, the rules of evidence are ‘fluffy’ and there is little or no case to answer when blatant misuse of ‘hearsay evidence’ is embraced by pro barristers. JQ v The beast. As it stands there is no end game, permanently denying a pilot the right to earn a living by stealth cannot, by any measure be considered fair, reasonable or just. If the CASA is not going to depend on the criminal code and penalties, why are they written into the regulations with such vehemence?. Pointless. For my mortgage, it’s an injunction then prove it or loose it. Quote:
Oh boy, my chance to be a CASA pin up boy, bliss. Make a change from a mug shot on a dart board. Perhaps I’ll start a CAA fan club. |

Not saying that at all, sarcs, unless you’re dangerously incompetent, in which case I’d prefer CASA to use the pineapple on you without the lubrication…

Pineapples and creampuffs – A tasteless meal indeed..
What has yet to be mentioned is that even if you challenge the CAA and it ends up in the AAT and you are exonerated or found ‘not guilty’ the follow up punishment is just as severe. CAA management and Inspectors don’t take too kindly to being ‘exposed or outed’ for performing an injustice and then getting dragged before the AAT to ‘explain’. So after they are given a spanking they then come after you in the typical bullying victimizing way we are used to.
Of course Creampuff who incidentally could just be related to Flyingfiend would know this is the case and know how the CAA game is played. My warning to anybody willing to throw a pineapple at CAA is simply this – Even if you score a ‘win’ the aftermath of the CASArians who are made to sweat at the AAT is not pleasant and payback is their ‘thing’.

Oh no, I’ve been found out.
I am all of the user names that post stuff that some people don’t like. The AAT always takes, as gospel, everything CASA says. Phelan knows the whole story. You are now entering …. the twilight zone. It’s now … 1987, and GA is really, really, fun and profitable. GA can now, finally, flourish … For everyone else who exists in the real world, please do your best to understand and comply with the rules. |

Well Puffy..in the “Real World” Flying in GA is fun..and for the most part profitable as well, and surprise, flourishing, under the foster and promote
attitude of their regulators, largely because most people do understand the regulations provided by them and abide by them. I think you would find very few “real” people in industry in OZ who would say the rubbish the CAA churn out as regulations are effective, just look at our safety record against theirs. If the regulations are not meant to promote safety, what the hell are they for? |

[…] Two bit, corrupt, biased, Kangaroo court [AAT] (show cause notice) run by CASA which is both rule writer, rule interpreter and rule enforcer to have anything to do […]
