Hi again Swingline :
Im pleased that you are knowledegable in the area of law and able to look after yourself. However there are many in aviation with no understanding of how the system really works. Those people just may appreciate someone standing up to wrongdoing within the regulator, so they can maybe thank their God for my efforts should they wish to.
I agree that most TC employees work within the bounds of fairness in their job, however most priests in the Catholic church also serve their parishoners with dignity and integrity.
There however, are many exceptions to the rule and there have been far to many child molesters plying their perversions under the protective umberella of the Church, it is a fact that some have been protected by the leaders of the church and were only prosecuted after public exposure forced the Church to finally deal with the wrong doers.
TC is really no different when it comes to wrong doing by their inspectors, the upper management like musk oxen form a circle to protect their own. Fairness, integrity and due process are only found in their Quality Assurance web site, in reality what you get is cover up, denial and stonewalling when you avail yourself of the services of their so called Quality Assurance department. Their behaviour lends a new meaning to the word hyprocrisy, in my opinion of course.
That is the problem that I am addressing, cover up and denial by TC upper management who condone and approve of wrong doing by denial.
Maybe you as a lawyer could explain to me what the real difference is between the two examples that I have put foward?
Remember, it is very likely that I have far more years dealing with the regulator than you have, and until about four years ago was not victimized by any corrupt TC employee.
One does not need to be a graduate of a law school to understand the difference between lawful and unlawful, right and wrong and the meaning of truth..
If there is a grey area in law that can is only applicicable to TC maybe you can enlighten me?
The above is posted with all due respect to you and all the rest of my colleauges.
PS :
I can't retire yet as I still have to go back to Holland and then go straight to the US to fly fifty hours with another PBY operator to give them training asked for by the insurance company.
Then I should have enough mad money to buy two new engines and props for my CRI CRI.
Chuck.
