This bit is the most concerning IMHO

In another report, dated May 2000, the authority described Mr Costin's failure to keep accurate log-book and maintenance entries on one of his Strikemasters as "a systematic pattern of non-compliance which has significantly degraded the level of safety for VH-ONP [the Strikemaster]."

If CASA had these concerns was anything done to bring him back into line

Cheers Calum
