Please get your pen out and put in a submission Steve Hitchen relates this to a change in Minister and the rejuvenated Barnaby Joyce – Steve Hitchen Does the general aviation community have that much inquiry fatigue that they can’t find it in themselves to engage with the current senate inquiry? Or, are we dealing […] Share this:Alan Jones talks to Dick Smith about flying training today [30th May 2018] Dick Smith Oration LNP policy support for immediate changes to Civil Aviation Act and review and change the regulations. In July 2015, Dick Smith made earlier comments on the #casa malaise How do I see this in 2018?? We now have […] Share this:The Cobden Airport doomed if planners have their way, according to local airport users. Despite major upgrades which allow for night landings, better parking and facilities, the Council have not registered the airport. This is essential infrastructure and must be protected by regulation. Further, wind turbines can have serious deleterious effects on aviation. Similar issues […] Share this:Ian Britza enters fray for by-election in New England against Barnaby Joyce. Who is Ian Britza?? Ian spent time growing up in Western Australian and the African country of Malawi and moved to New South Wales at the age of 15 where he lived for 25 years. Ian was until recently member for Morley in […] Share this:The recent Lord Howe Island accident was reported today in The Australian. There are now three accidents/ incident’s that can be partially attributed to poor passing on of weather to pilots and aircraft in transit and variably poor Air Traffic control and likely interference by #casa. Pelair – November 2009; Mildura – July 2013; Parallells […] Share this:In the #casa monthly missive – September 2017, Carmody tries to say he is “….re-setting the way CASA consults and engag(es)ing with the aviation community. …” Well this is the CEO who in fact still is not doing that. AOPA-AUS excluded a chair in ASAP; [Carmody says”……is drawn from representative groups…” – NOT True No […] Share this:I followed through onto the #casa web site to look at the recently [July, 2017] released corporate plan. In reading the document, with it’s key section, the measurement of performance, come to the distinct conclusion that #casa must not continue as there is no measurable metric that is given. From KlipFolio, a metric, in measurement […] Share this:s the public servant, who I have seen “bail out” #casa, #atsb and #airservices starting to crack? At numerous senate estimates hearings, MrDak has defended the indefensible with #casa in particular being the beneficiary. When McCormick was in the CEO role, a lot of the happenings were in front of the senators and batted away […] Share this:The latest Australian Flying has a Letter-to-the-Editor which calls into doubt the way Shane Carmody is “…doing business…” It seems that “….nothing to see here…” reigns supreme and he still does not “get aviation”.
Questions being asked Shane Carmody
The Editor, Australian Flying, Dear Sir, I have this month’s copy […] Share this:#atsb preliminary report into B200 Essendon crash released today. SMH report below. A lot of work yet to determine the causal links in this accident. Earlier reprot on Essendon accident March 29 2017 – 3:37PM No engine failure on Essendon crash plane before impact: investigators Tom Cowie Both engines on a light plane […] Share this:
Do other #aviation Investigators direct the regulator? is a reasonable question. This is particularly after the REX loss of propeller incident last week and the #Mildura incident – almost four years ago [when two 737 aircraft ended up at Mildura due to incorrect data being fed to the weather provider and the lack of information […] Share this:Propeller found according to The Australian. THE NATION Missing REX propeller that sheared off plane mid-flight found in bushland Rex Airlines propeller found in Revesby Heights The Australian 3:32PM March 21, 2017 Save Emily Ritchie Journalist Sydney@emilyritchie94 A propeller that sheared off a Regional Express plane bound for Sydney mid-flight late last week […] Share this:Is this a toned down version following the previous, but no, more #adsb spin. Remember this is shifting #airservices expenditure requirements to the private sector, with few if any improvement to costs of GA in particular. Dick Smith tells us that air services are not using the adsb system because staff are not yet trained. […] Share this:The last two senates estimates hearings have put serious pressure on #casa, #airservices and #atsb. There appears to be some sort of death wish of the leader via departmental head Mrdak and the individual semi autonomous government organisations. The recent ANAO inquiry into #airservices certainly canned their method of “doing business”. Yet Harefield in […] Share this:Still no report from either #pelAir or #mildura [#atsb said at the time: “…The final report is anticipated for release to the public by June 2014.”] as to what really happened [Incident – 18th June 2013]. The question is: “How can two aircraft not be notified of serious changes in the weather and visibility at […] Share this:In July 2014, the following letter was written to Mr. Truss, when he was about to speak to the National Press Club. Not only was there no proper mention of aviation, at all, except for the following: But it also now allows the aviation, transport and tourism industries to make long-term investment plans based on […] Share this:With apologies to AuntyPru, as this is a reminder as to how questions asked that lead to a similar end as the questions below never get answered by #casa. That #casa, #asa, #atsb refuse to have QON’s in on time shows the degree to which these organisations thumb their nose at proper governance by the […] Share this:Casa and surveillance – Aviation Safety Compliance Follow-up Audit by Australian National Audit Office in 2002.

The Senators were very unhappy in seeing #asa, even through the questioning of Angus Houston from the #asa Board did not give clear answers. Angus Houston was given […] Share this:Serious occurrences into Tullarmarine and Mt. Hotham The series of incidents into Melbourne’s Tullamarine airport, which largely revolve around a difficult to fly STAR route are detailed below and should be combined with the report by The Australian into another Mt. Hotham incident. Also below is the Sandilands – Newcastle coal loader incident. ADSB […] Share this:#aopa’s Marc de Stoop questions #casa That Marc is asking who is making these regulations, is interesting, as is questioning the proper qualifications. Read Marc’s letter to #casa here. This is an issue that I have long had with #casa, where people are given a job on “casa requirements”, and not proper aviation qualifications. There […] Share this:The review by the Australian senate resumed, with Angus Houston being grilled by the Senators on 9th September 2015. [see below]. The previous hearing on 18th August 2015 raised some serious issues for #asa. Hansard: The original 18th September 2015 [Rural and Regional Affairs and Transport Legislation Committee_2015_08_18_3712] Hansard. Submissions to the 18th August 2015 […] Share this:Is #casa correct or does #ozaviation have real numbers?? The letter written to #casa by #aopa queried the real cost of the RIS [Regulatory Impact statement], which Marc de Stoop has real information, wheras #casa “…believes….”. AOPA Australia has been silent on a range of issues in #ozaviation, but with Marc de Stoop, is starting […] Share this:The hearing into #asa continued on 8th September 2015, with the Senators seeking answers to a series of issues that could well be defined at corruption. Dick Smith and a corresponding group of articles in The Australian exposed serious safety issues in the #asa portfolio, particularly in Tasmania, with aircraft disappearing from radar screens.
[…] Share this:Effect of #ozaviation on the community seen in Tasmania Finally, there is a growing realisation of the impact of aviation and the factors of “…getting it wrong….”. There is a concern by Tourism Tasmania that people might be concerned about effects on numbers visiting Tasmania. Imagine if there was another incident which involved loss of […] Share this:“Nothing to see here” – #asa That #asa would take the view that a failure of the radar and say that the reversion to “voice seperation” is astounding. Remember #MH370, where the only remaining reliable remaining data is that provided by radar. This demonstrates that #asa has no idea about how to properly use the […] Share this:Does the #casa Corporate plan meet the #asrr review? The “Corporate Plan” that was released last week, by #casa, needs some careful and insightful review. Viewed with the #casa demand of the industry for another $25m via the “fees poor-box”, in March 2015, the Corporate Plan can only be viewed as another #casa attempt to […] Share this:RAAA support opening up competition to #asa There is a growing noise of the problems of #asa. This situation has followed the Senate expose on 18th August 2015. The RAAA [see below] gives a further push to serious changes to management of Australian airspace. The RAAA fully supports Maurice Newman, the federal government’s most senior […] Share this:is #atsb reporting all the airspace data from Tasmania?? A quick search of the database from #atsb, shows that there were only 5 airspace matters reported in the past 5-years from Tasmania. The search was based on: Date range: From 25 Jul 2010 to 24 Jul 2015 Location: TAS Occurrence Category: Incident, Serious Incident Occurrence […] Share this: |
