Guys, Some of you are barking up the wrong tree. Part 47 or the new regulations and the new aircraft register have nothing directly to do with aviation security. The new database called AIRES from memory replaces LARP - LARP had been due for replacement for so long it was not even Y2000 compliant but it managed to do its job until September 2005. It was really a smart thing to do to do both at the same time, however it appears that someone did not appreciate the size of the job and the change over was under resourced.
As far as your ASIC cards are concerned, aviation security belongs to the Department of Transport, CASA simply act as one of the issuing authorities for the card, maybe they have been overwhelmed with applications, other options are RAA is you're a member or possibly your local airport operator. For as long as I have been involved with aviation the DCA through to CASA have been as easy target for many in aviation - the regulator - dammed if you do and dammed if they don't. The current upheaval in the flying operations areas will not improve the situation in the short term either - there are a lot of pissed of staff over there at Barry Ave. SDF -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pete Sent: Saturday, 18 February 2006 12:25 PM To: Discussion of issues relating to Soaring in Australia.
