Australia Air safety Authority

In the land of “Fair-go”, why aren’t Qantas being grounded like Tiger?

The Australian Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) decided to make history on 1 July 2011 by grounding an entire airline - Tiger Airways for almost six weeks over the incidents in which the same pilot twice flown too low into airports in Melbourne within a time-frame of slightly more than 3 weeks in June. The suspension on Tiger Airways has being partially lifted by CASA on 10 August with the imposition of new conditions on Tiger's air operator's certificate.
