Australia has retained its Category One status following an audit by the US Federal Aviation Administration, which was conducted at the invitation of CASA.
“Australia can continue to be very proud of our aviation safety record and the effort we make to maintain that record,” said CASA CEO John McCormick. “The audit recognised there had been a past under investment in technical training for CASA staff and supported CASA’s current initiatives to provide even more comprehensive technical training.”
