Top resignations shake-up aero club
THREE directors reportedly have resigned from the Peninsula Aero Club at Tyabb. They are Michael Brooks, Robert Parker and Rolfe Summerhayes.
Brooks was vice-president of the club, and both he and Parker were members of the safety committee. Summerhayes was on special projects.
PAC president Jack Vevers confirmed their departures, saying: “Yes they did resign.” However, he would not be drawn on the reasons why except to say the men had “different views on the [club’s] safety management system”.
“They wanted to do [things] one way and we wanted to do them another way,” he said.
