Neil_S Posted May 18, 2012 Posted May 18, 2012 Hi folks, Just saw this from EAA in the US :- http://www.eaa.org/news/2012/2012-05-08_iltfd.asp Seems like a good idea, and wondered if we have a similar thing in Australia at all.... Cheers Neil

Guest davidh10 Posted May 18, 2012 Posted May 18, 2012 Looking at their find an event form, "international" seems to mean the US and Canada. The only surprise there is that Canada is included!
Yenn Posted May 18, 2012 Posted May 18, 2012 The FAA has the job of promoting flying, unlike our CASA which has the job of promoting safety.

NOPE, the FAA's mission included promotion until the ValueJet accident many years ago - now it is all about safety. http://www.faa.gov/about/mission/There is still much that CASA could take from that however.
