If that is the case, no point moaning here about what was done in changing the structure, those that voted for that, screwed the pooch by the look of it.
I would allege RAAus doing nothing except collect membership dues, aircraft rego, and browbeat the current maintenance regime into the ground, until many people give up.
They turn up at air shows, flying-ins to foster Aviation on one hand but on the other the maintenance training regime does not exist as it should.
Handballing it to TAFE, is a cop out.
CASA should pull RAAus ticket and look at SAAA.
