McCormick makes his case in this month’s edition of CASA’s newsletter. Highlighting the introduction of a new “outcome-based” regime of safety regulations that took effect this year, he said CASA had also rolled out a new Certificate of Approval manual for its staff to help standardise its processes, and purchased a new data management system to improve information sharing across the organisation. Finally, he said CASA had introduced a comprehensive training program for all inspectors.
But, as McCormick acknowledged, “there are undoubtedly people in the aviation industry who still hold a critical opinion of aspects of CASA’s performance.”
