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:This is Skidmore’s last misssive, and …goodbye… [Remember, the missive only goes to around 7000 people and many of these only have an interest in #aviation, being on the “list”] What has Skidmore brought us? More regulation; No improvement of regs especially Part 61, which brings higher costs and no understanding improvements, despite Skidmore’s “Tiger […] Share this:Jeff Boyd addresses industry in Cairns On 4th September 2015, Jeff Boyd addressed a public meeting in Cairns QLD. He addressed a series of important matters, which are critical for aviation in Australia. Article about the meeting I have attached a copy of the recording below, which is only accessible to subscribed members. There is […] Share this:#ASA now refusing to answer questions by The Australian Questions, which are a proper part of the transference of information and cooperation that should exist in aviation. This cooperation must exist in order that a joint improvement is made to aviation, rather than one-sided approaches. The Airservices media unit refused to provide any information or […] Share this:Truss confirms McCormick for ICAO In a most amazing turn of events, DPM Truss confirms McCormick for the ICAO position. This is the person, McCormick, in whom the Australian Senate has no confidence, the person who was heavily involved in the Cathay Pacific #49’s debacle, the person whom has harassed aviation people at Acacia Ridge […] Share this:Mark Skidmore’s first “Missive”: Well, the training wheels are off on Mark Skidmore’s first foray into the big aviation world. He lists the “….five principles CASA must embrace when making decisions or taking actions…”, but the “..principles…” are not bound at all in the CAAct, except for Principle 1 – CAAct 9A. This approach does […] Share this:
Skidmore finds his way to the CASA web page – eventually!! Clicked on the “CASA Director” tab this afternoon [19th January 2015] and all I found was: The Page [NoSuchPage] is not defined in this application, please check the URL. Then a few minutes later get the BIO shown below. Question here is: […] Share this:ASSR replies released by DOTARs on 6th January 2015. This was done without any fanfare or media releases at all, just appears on the web-site. These are a must-read, with the “Government Response” attempting to water down the effect of the ASRR. The Government response says, in part: Industry will be provided with further opportunities […] Share this:The following demonstrates the real underlying issue in ATSB investigations, when CASA has failed to properly surveil the operator, leading to an operational issue. Further, ATSB is not issuing the “safety factor” on the regulator. Surely, this leaves both CASA and ATSB in breach of CAAct 9A(1) REPCON Mode Aviation Reference No. AR201400079 Date reported […] Share this:Repeal of Instruments and Instruments revoked One of the problems an aviator has is the improper use of regulations/ instruments. This is a distinctly obvious problem of understanding by both CASA and the individual or business. A question to be asked is do these CASA – made instruments expire or if they have not been […] Share this:Address by Jonathon Aleck – November 2014, which goes to the matter of ‘trust’. The industry is clear – it does not trust the regulator. The ASRR report by David Forsyth and the many submissions could not be clearer – No trust in the regulator and also the safety investigator. There is no mention […] Share this:AMROBA scores the Government on Aviation progress after 12 months since election. We all know aviation is a delicate subject, but it has been subject to three reviews in past 18-months, which all point to a failing system, yet the recently resigned DAS [McCormick] in his last gasp [monthly missive] to the industry again tries […] Share this:RURAL AFFAIRS AND TRANSPORT LEGISLATION COMMITTEE Estimates (supplementary) TUESDAY, 18 OCTOBER 2011 The Department Senator FAWCETT: Gentlemen, a number of individuals and aviation associations have criticised—in fact, some have condemned in quite strong words—both the minister and the department for their handling of the issues around commercial development on Bankstown and Archerfield airports. I would […] Share this:Paul Tyrell raises concerns on aviations future in an article on Aviation in the current HIA magazine. It is a worthy read and demonstrates the importance of the current Forsyth review – the ASRR [Aviation Safety Regulatory Review]. The review attracted over 260 submissions, with over 30% of them being confidential, which is maybe a […] Share this:On a number of occassions, I have been asked as to what is the Head of Power for an “AC” – Advisory Circular. The reference on the most recent is as follows: Advisory Circulars are intended to provide advice and guidance to illustrate a means, but not necessarily the only means, of complying with the […] Share this:This is what Geoff Boyd said when he became chair of the RAAA. Question is, can Geoff apply these continuing principles to the CASA Board job and ensure that the constituency that elected him to this position [RAAA Chair] is represented in the CASA Board situation. And will the Board put in place the ASRR […] Share this:The following articles ran today [20th June 2014] in Australia, which give a clear indication of the way the Australian regulator treat Australian pilots with disregard.
1 SBS – News 19 Jun 2014 – 1:12pm Colour-blind pilot challenges licence restrictions A Qantas jet flies past the control tower at Sydney Airport. (Source: AAP) […] Share this:CASA is currently pressing on with PART 61, against the wishes of the aviation community and with out proper promulgation of the MOS [Manual of Standards]. A search today, 18th June 2014, does not have a published MOS for Part 61. The Part cannot stand on it’s own without the standard. The full part is: […] Share this:The last time I went to on of these seminars, the presenters refused to answer questions on Part 61 and a range of important issues. To raise issues is just another way to not get answers from CASA. ___________________________________________________________________________________ The latest is directed seminar series, which in the mccormick missive on 26th May 2014 says: […] Share this:These submissions were released today [13th June 2014] and bear some careful reading. The large number of confidential submissions [over 70 of the 269] bears witness that a large individuals and organisations are concerned about retribution on making a submission. The public submissions released today can be read here [I have sorted them into groups […] Share this:The heavy lifting still has to come on this as the report still allows CASA to prevail. This fails to fully get to the real underlying problems of the industry, which is supported by the member for Franklin who shows her complete ignorance of the issues, a problem arises for the industry. The following are […] Share this:The Senate estimates makes interesting listening tonight [26th May 2014], with Senator Fawcett grilling Martin Dolan of the ATSB. Senator Fawcett sheeted the funding issues and the up-coming loss of 12 staff in the ATSB to Albanese on more than one occasion – the new Government is keeping to the responsible people. the ATSB says […] Share this:An old report reminds us of the Annex 13 requirements and maybe reminds us of the ATSB reports and the errors exposed by “interested parties” in getting the actual answers. Unfortunately there are too many since Whyalla, where ATSB has some serious answers to give: Whyalla Lockhart River Benalla Canley Vale Norfolk Island for a […] Share this:Are the wheels really coming off the CASA machine?? Perhaps moving the over-burden while looking for the $89.9m in the Budget.
Share this:The material written below by CASA, has been overtaken by events since 2011 [probably written in late 2011/ early 2102, as it is not dated], yet CASA still publish this on their web-site: – To say: CASA’s governance framework provides the context within which the organisation operates to achieve its objectives, ensuring transparent, ethical and […] Share this:

The following discussion by Ken bears some careful thought: At the last CASA SCC Operations sub-committee, we were promised a lot more regulatory packages that are so big, they will be submitted […] Share this: |
