Oh dear who brought this crap up....
Looks to me like another crazy get hanson scheme... how unusual.
Pauline Hanson's chief of staff, James Ashby, is under investigation for flying his boss around Queensland without the proper pilot's licence.
Key points:
ABC understands Civil Aviation Safety Authority is investigating James Ashby's flying of the light aircraft
Plane is registered as recreational aircraft, which means it cannot be flown for commercial purposes
Mr Ashby has spoken publicly about flying Pauline Hanson around in the plane
The ABC understands Mr Ashby is being investigated by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) for flying the Jabiru J230 during the 2016 election campaign.
CASA has declined to confirm or deny whether any investigation is underway.
If found guilty, Mr Ashby faces fines and could lose his licence.
The ABC understands Mr Ashby only holds a recreational pilot's licence and the plane is registered as a recreational aircraft.That means it cannot be flown for commercial purposes or in controlled airspace above major airports.
Mr Ashby described the investigation as a "political witch-hunt".
"I will comply with CASA's request for documents, however this is just a further waste of taxpayers' money where their findings will result in the same outcome as previous investigations," he said.The plane is plastered with a stylised image of Senator Hanson, and Mr Ashby used it to fly the One Nation leader around Queensland in 2015 and 2016.
Nothing in the article or media reports points to anything else but a witchhunt bwian.
