Issue 93: December 1993
Time for a Rethink?
The past year has certainly been bad news for the Civil Aviation Authority. Firstly, there was the very public and extremely embarrassing bloodletting over the TAAATS contract, followed by ongoing claims of low morale, confused management and finally the eleventh hour decision to abandon the introduction of a revised airspace classification system.
The TAAATS decision will cost Australian aviation dearly, probably at least $200m in additional costs while the airspace fiasco not only saw millions wasted in wasted prelaunch activity but some say a million dollars a week in increased service charges due to its not being implemented on schedule.
