Sandy Reith reminds the Senators of the history of the past 10-years, where #aviation has come under extreme pressure due to indifferent Government action and failure to manage #aviation for the future. The need for a major structural change is evident. [The letter is published below.] The #casa experiment is a dismal failure, with […]
We must immediately, as an industry, maintain order and deal with the immediate challenges, which is an #aviation industry creaking to a grinding halt, particularly in regional Australia.
#aviation is vital infrastructure, which must incorporate a plan that protects airfields and landing areas from local Council onslaught and […]
There are proposed changes to the Aviation Act, which lapsed in the last Parliament (May 2019).
Senator Janet Rice [Victoria] says: “This bill has not been through sufficient scrutiny. These are very legitimate concerns and they need a robust hearing. It’s not just the Greens and the pilots. What’s the department’s justification for this […]
DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER CALLS FOR GENERAL AVIATION CONSENSUS ON UPDATE TO THE CIVIL AVIATION ACT.
AOPA Australia President, Marc De Stoop, and Executive Director, Benjamin Morgan, and AMROBA Executive Director, Ken Cannane, today met with Deputy Prime Minister, Michael McCormack to discuss our support for changes to the […]
On the 26th April 2018, Dick Smith spoke in Wagga NSW about the challenges facing #aviation.
In the talk, which is below for an almost 20-minute listen, calls for substantial changes to the Civil Aviation Act [CAAct], which will immediately benefit the direction of #aviation and #saveGA.
Further Dick calls for the introduction of the […]
The article in the Mt Isa paper demonstrates only part of the problem facing #aviation in Australia. A lot of these problems have been foisted on us by an unworkable aviation rule set, price gouging by Councils [and airport “owners”], air services charges, ASIC issues, security, #casa impossible and micro management rules.
The following are a series of FOI requests made to #casa recently. The basis of the #casa response is refusal for a FOI. This is traced to the #casa legal branch and either Adam Anastasi or Jonathon Aleck involved.
The FOI disclosure log has been interfered with to the point where FOI’s, legitimately made and […]
The general view by the #aviation industry is that the general process of “reform” is not leading to better regulations, but to ones out of step with the rest of the world and people are walking away from the industry.
This time other peoples survival have been compromised. The loss of human transplant materials from New Zealand could well affect a number of recipient lives who, although through a sad passing of another human life is a tragedy, the family unselfish donation to others is lost.
The #casa mantra “Safe Sky’s far All” is now “Safe Skies are Empty Skies”
Question is: Can Barnaby Joyce fix this?
This morning in The Australian, Dick Smith and a slew of journalists have this matter firmly in it’s sight. The articles, as these are of such importance they are produced in full below.
#casa circular regulations could result in a $10.5K fine
Have been on a browse through the new regulations [or parts] and Part 117 is a doosey.
Simply, if you read a part, get it wrong in #casa’s eyes, expect a $10,500 fine.
Even if you ask #casa for an interpretation, don’t expect it any time soon. I know of one case where it took […]
