Why was Aleck not considered??

 

Was it about his I'll founded comments to the Press?? on Jabiru

That is good Taa-up-into-air, however go to the origin of the info. The start, at where the ball started rolling for the Jab issue. Blow the whistle and send them all for an early shower and never to return in their life.

 

Industry and society does not want them, they are grubs.

Well Keith, the Jabiru issue starts and finishes at Jonathon Aleck. He signed the Jabiru Instrument and he, at the time, was in charge of all things light aviation - Gliders, Experimental, RAAus etc

 

And Aleck did not get the relieving gig to replace Skidmore when he backed his bag and left #casa.

WHY??

 

Where did the advice come from for the Jabiru issue, when the statistics used were quite false and misleading??

 

Down the line "advisers" of course. And who would have been the principle one??, the ex-ceo of RAAUS.

 

What influence did he yield can be asked, together with, why was he so hard on Jabiru??

 

I leave that for others.

UITA, you might like to actually go out and get some facts before shooting off.

TP, questions asked, questions asked in the post. Not assertions of fact!!

1.

Nothing wrong with asking the question, but in the second part you did make an assertion that "the statistics used were quite false and misleading"

If you are referring to the years of statistics produced by RAA and published in their magazine, you might have a problem backing up that statement.

 

If you are referring to the investigation by Scott Climie and Klaus Schwerdtfeger from CASA, onsite at RAA, you might have a problem backing up that statement.

 

If you are referring to direct reports to CASA, they would not normally be available to the public.

 

If you are referring to a last minute unedited report which included several blatant mistakes such as flat tyres and fuel exhaustions, that report was produced by RAA

 

If you are referring to some limited ATSB data, that can be taken on its merits.

 

2.

If you're referring to Lee Ungermann, he has said it was RAA which raised the issues with CASA .

3.

 

What influence did he yield can be asked, together with, why was he so hard on Jabiru??

CASA Safety Systems Office reviewed the data, NOT CASA Self Administering Sport Aviation Office, and the go-ahead benchmark for the Instrument was based on an FAA benchmark.

I haven't seen any information to say that Lee Ungermann made any decision for CSSO.

These don't look like questions to me.

In large organisations, the head of department, or legal counsel ususally makes a ritual signature, and his only involvement may have been to check the decision making process for legality.

 

Insinuating that he was deeply involved in the Jabiru Instrument and as a result lost out as Mark Skidmore's replacement is laughable.

 

The old Instrument is now old news and there has been a review at which any new facts could have been presented to decide the current Instrument, so this sort of innuendo is just mischievous, and belongs on another site.

 

 

[Keith Page]

OK.. Turbo what is correct then?

[turboplanner]

Let's just let the CASA people do their job without this pointless and unsupportable conspiracy theory.

 

 

[storchy neil]

I say again raaus has a deed of agreement to CASA

 

should that deed be broken in any way by raaus you and I are accountable for any breaches of that agreement or incidents that are not reported to CASA

 

example 1 l2 fails to note in aircraft log a repair that was done to an aircraft and latter found

 

example 2 flight school not adhering to our regulations

 

example 3 bill blogs flying an registered raaus plane

 

example 4 raaus fail to investigate a complaint about l2 or LAME not engageing in the proper procedure off the repair and maintenance off raaus registered aircraft

 

example 5 a not airworthy aircraft being flown

 

anymore

 

please correct me if I am wrong neil
