facthunter Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Some of the employee's are ok . It's the policies and ingrained culture that need changing. They know they are on the nose . Until it's embarrassing or affects their individual lobs, they don't care. If you are in the business you just go along with it rather than make waves. Do that and you run the risk of what happens when you tell the boss he isn't much good at his job. Nev 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnewbery Posted August 23, 2016 Author Share Posted August 23, 2016 From the CASA "reaction to survey" report Targeted competency training for CASA’s workforce will continue to focus on improving our relationship with industry. This will include improved staff knowledge and skills on communicating as a regulator, developing interview skills and good administrative decision making. Does this mean they don't already teach people to do their jobs - as in regulate, interview and administer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
up-into-the-air Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Well, we need some serious responses by the pollies, as they must respond to what is a resounding fail by #casa and its #colmarbrunton survey. I participated in this and #colmarbrunton were not getting the answers that #casa briefed them they would get. #colmarbrunton survey 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Tuncks Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 If the head of CASA gets $ 600,000 a year then I think that's obscene. Especially because this money was not earned, it was demanded with menaces from poorer people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turboplanner Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Very topical this should come up; I'll give them an E minus, massive fail, for what they've done to radio communications, how the've virtually hidden successive changes fromn pilots, and how they don't seem to even be able to index and explain all the fragmented subject matter of radio communication.

Gnarly Gnu Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 And the poor minnows doing customer service get no say in this Nonsense, every last one of the 'poor minnows' are well overpaid and no longer have any concept that they are supposed to be employed as our servants. I guess making the rules, enforcing the rules and getting pay higher wages and with better conditions will do that... the whole show needs a role reversal. Start by locking their wages at private sector average less 10% and then lock CASA staff numbers to aviation industry employment numbers. No reason it should not remain proportional or be decreasing as technology continually improves their productivity. That's how the real world works. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

facthunter Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 The more we hear the more the poor performance is evident. The people on the end of the phone are not the problem .They don't make the policies. The ones who do must accept responsibility for it. The new minister, Chester says "he doesn't know much about aviation" that's terrific. But at least he's admitted it and can rectify it. The folio is transport and Infrastructure. A small part of that is AIR matters. Remember we once had a dedicated minister for CIVIL Aviation.. AOPA are off their bum and pushing for change . Join up, input, and be part of the FIX..

I put in the sternest of complaints recently to CASA and low and behold one of my great mates from schools older brother who I used to get doubled by on motor bike trips through the bush works for them... He calls me up , we spend about 2 hours on the phone and he certainly does have our interest at heart... Whether he can shift the momentum of stupid bureaucracy is another story... As many will know I literally HATE avmed, but I do feel for the staff of this stupid behemoth 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
up-into-the-air Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Problem, with a dysfunctional organisation such as #casa, those at the coalface are often just as bad as they lack any coherent support network. Look at the Coroners report into David Black's accident and the culpability of #casa through a whole range of staffing levels. PS: The FOI's are on around $150K - Minnows at the coalface??

derekliston Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 As a LAME CASA were not my favourite people, however to be fair, as a pilot I have been happy in my dealings with them. I had a heart attack three plus years ago and thanks to Avmed I have had my licence back for two and a half of those. Yes it makes life a little bit more expensive with the additional medical requirements but they are helpful when I speak to them and I can't ask for much more!
