With this, following the expiry of
the Special Commissioner in charge of
the Aero Club of Italy, Sen. Joseph
Leoni, I ask you not to reappoint the
same (or to withdraw the same position
if it had been renewed), because of the
facts and reasons that follow, which
show the absolute inappropriateness of
making such appointment.
Thank you for the patience to devote to
reading this paper, summarizing the
essential facts in support of my
request, trusting that it will be taken
into account.
1) SERIOUS FAILURE IN THE MANAGEMENT OF
THE AeCI AND THE SPECIAL COMMISSIONER
In October 2009, the elections are
carried out for the four-yearly renewal
of the Federal Council of Aero Club
d'Italia. Have been be elected Senator
Giuseppe Leoni (President) and 9 members
of the Federal Council. The Federal
Council has never been called in action.
The reason given reside, according to
the Sen. Leoni, in the incompatibility
of the presidents of the federation to
hold the chair of Federal Councilor.
This, despite the Aero Club d'Italia had
requested the Ministry, and the Ministry
itself had responded, by letter dated
02/11/2009, that nothing precluded the
new council to start its work. The
President, Inexplicably, for months
(until June/July 2010) omitted to send
the Minister the list of elected
councilors in order to officially
appoint them.
Sen. Leoni, July 6 of 2010, fixed a
special Assembly (not in line with the
Statute) for new elections of only three
Federal Councilors considered
incompatible. This is illegal.
The Assembly has not made the election
of members for, among other reasons, the
ministry has not sanctioned the
incompatibility of members and the
ministry did not say that the members
should be replaced or, at least, that
decision was not communicated to the
members themselves. In addition,
internal elections were cumbersome as to
not allow the expression of any
application. Consequently there were no
candidates.
The federal council that was in force
before the elections quietly continued
to act illegally for a year on issues of
fundamental importance and in any case
for extraordinary administration. This
is not permitted by Law May 16, 1994, No
293 (Articles 1, 2, 3 and 6). which
provides that: "The administrative
bodies shall not be extended again for
no more than forty-five days from the
day of exipiring" ... "On expiry of the
deadline extension without that
provision is made for their recovery,
administrative bodies decay and their
acts are considered as not existent. "
Federations filed a petition to the
Ministry: under the provisions of Law
January 24, 1978 No 14, a member of
Parliament (Sen. Leoni) can in no case
shall hold the office of president of a
public body (Aero Club
d'Italia).
The petition was overtaken by the decree
by which Mr. Leoni has been appointed as
Special Commissioner, with the task of
adapting the statute of the Aero Club
d'Italia (within
90 days) and convene the Assembly for
the appointment of federal council
members (within the next 90 days).
Senator Leoni clearly did not fulfill
the mandate given by Ministry and his
mandate has expired. Currently, there is
no Federal Council, there is no CEO, no
CCSA (supreme council for air sports).
2) SERIOUS FAILURE AND ABUSES IN THE
MANAGEMENT OF SPORT AND THE COMMITTEE
SPORTS CENTRAL AIR FORCE
In June 2010, Sen. Leoni proposed
modification of the National Sporting
Regulations, providing that the
Federations will no longer hold any
sporting activity or have no function
within the "system Aero Club d'Italia",
in spite of the Statute. "Sen. Leoni
explains to the members of CCSA that
this is implemented for" anticipating
"the new status of Aero Club d'Italia in
which the federations will disappear."
Strange: a year ago, Sen. Leoni made
reference to the text of the new statute
and that he, to date, has not yet
submitted (not fulfilling the mandate of
ministry).
In the draft proposal for a new
Regulation of operation of the CCSA
(supreme airsports commission), shows a
"norm closure" desired by Sen. Leoni,
with which the President assumes the
powers , when "considered appropriate"
by himself, to steal the powers of the
CCSA to transfer them to Federal
Council: In fact, it transforms the
CCSA, the supreme body in the Aero Club
d'Italia on issues assigned to it by the
Statute (Art. 35 paragraph 1 of the
Statute), a purely consultative body,
subjected to the powers of the President
of AeCI.
The CCSA rejected by a large majority,
the amendment proposed by Sen. Leoni
who, as consequence, revoked the
delegation of the FAI members of CCSA
(previously, for a similar episode, was
revoked the delegation to other members
of the FAI) and made approve the
rejected regulations by the CCSA by the
Federal Council, on the point without
any jurisdiction and in any case
expired, in contrast with the provisions
of art. No 38 1 of the Statute.
All the powers that the Statute reserves
to the Aeronautical Sports Federations
were abolished. This in disregard of the
fact that the federations are set out in
Articles. No 6 2 and 12 to 16 of the
Statute, as institutions who have "the
purpose of sport and competitions of the
particular area of expertise" (Article
12).
Subsequently, the President Leoni,
following the resignation of the
president of CCSA, has definitively
closed the CCSA and assumed himself all
the CCSA powers, (contrary to the
provisions in the Statute , concerning
the jurisdiction of the CCSA). Since
September 2010, the Aero Club d'Italia
is therefore without the CCSA, with
serious repercussions in the sports
sector.
The AECI sent a note to the Olympic
Committee in which he falsely assumed
that the Federations "do not play
sports,": The Olympic Committee, on that
premise, has cancelled the federations
from its Special Register.
For the same reason, have been deleted
from the registry of The Olympic
Committee about 350 amateur sports
associations belonging to the
Federations. The same associations were
heavily penalized in the eventual
decision to federate as local Aeroclubs,
because with malicious forethought, was
drawn a barrage: The annual fee to enter
into Aeroclub of Italy growth by 900%.
for the first years of aggregation (from
500 to about 4600 , including a new
"entry fee") in order to crystallize the
structure of the organization.
The 350 sports clubs, after vehement
protests, were eligible to be a part of
the Aero Club d'Italia (at a cost of
200/year) but without the right to vote
in the assembly, without the right to
carry out flight school, without the
right to organizing sports activities .
Justification is a paradox: Aero Club
d'Italia in a document wrote that, in
order to be recognized as an association
that plays sports, that group should not
play any sports! In the matter of facts,
have been expelled from Aero Club
d'Italia thousands of pilots and
associations.
3) DIRECTOR-GENERAL OF THE ORGANIZATION
AND OFFICES
In December 2010, ended his functions
the Director General of Aero Club
d'Italia. That figure today is still
vacant, although he had officially
notified, since September 2010, that he
would not agree to continue his
assignment. In the absence of the
federal council and CCSA, also now lacks
the Federal Director: inefficiency or
desire to reign supreme?
To date, we do not know if the request
has been submitted for the designation
of the DG. Worries instead that the
Extraordinary Commissioner has made it
clear his intention to appoint, a unique
case, ad DG a person (a woman personal
secretary) employed in the offices of
Aero Club d'Italia (in defiance of the
law).
When the past Director General has
retired, has been disrupted the
organization of the offices. The head of
the technical field service operation
that has participated in the work of
writing the new air law DPR133/2010, and
his colleagues were sent to another
office (sports) and vice versa. The
change involved a period of substantial
office block consisting of inexperienced
personnel in a delicate moment,
coinciding with the entry into force of
the actual reform of the ulm and free
flight law. This has brought huge delays
in issuing of identification devices
(some of which persist today). To date,
however, the identifications are barred
because the Commissioner has expired.
The absence of a Director General, has
resulted in the complete autonomy of the
offices in interpreting the new law.
This was followed by cases of
interpretations "unusual" that resulted
in the need to file petition to courts
or to submit formal questions to the
Ministry of Transport to have an
authentic interpretation. For example,
in the opinion of the office, you can
not obtain the qualification of
"advanced aircraft" testing on plates
issued to manufacturers. This means that
a part of the reform of primary
importance and that remains unrealized
in the testing of fixed-wing aircraft
should perform the test maneuvers
resulting certainty of the crash to the
ground. Not only that, to date, to free
interpretation, the test plates are
issued with a validity of only six
months, without there being any legal or
regulatory support for this declaration.
The commission appointed by the Federal
Council to assist in the interpretation
of Presidential offices was never
convened. Consequently, to date have not
been put into execution the relevant law
133/2010 which shares the program of
flight training, towing the program, the
appointment of a commission to conclude
agreements in art. 9 5 co dpr 133 to
allow pilots to fly the European
countries as "advanced pilots", the
agreement with San Marino repeatedly
urged the same country to permit the
circulation of the means identified T7.
4) SCHOOL NATIONAL HELICOPTERS
The National School helicopters of Lugo,
founded in 1984, until 2003, has
performed more than 36,000 hours of
flight 5 helicopters, helicopter
training young. Commissioner Leoni, for
no reason, decided to transfer its
headquarters in Milan. Start a standoff
between city, province and region. The
Commissioner wrongly decided to close
the Aero Club of Lugo.
The Court of Lazio and the Council of
State declared contrary to the law the
decision of Sen Leoni to commissioner
the Aeroclub of Lugo, the dismissal of
instructors and technical personnel .
The protests of local population are
being felt up in parliament. To defend
himself, the Senator Leoni, accused the
administration of the National School
helicopters of theft, and serious
financial and administrative
irregularities. The helicopters are
removed from Lugo. The Financial Police,
the INPS and INAIL after two years of
checks and balances of current accounts,
suppliers, employees and board members,
did not find any irregularities: the
police say that all accounts were
maintained in an exemplary manner.
Meanwhile, the helicopters were
transferred from one place to another:
some parts are broken, no maintenance is
not carried out, and now after 8 years,
lie cannibalized, ripped to pieces and
unusable in a hangar at Sarzana, with
severe damage state representative .
When you pick up some protest on the
facts reported, Sen. Leoni denounces you
and carry you to a Court. Sen. Leoni
looses any trial but continue to
denounce. After various pressures by
the Court of Auditors, Sen. Leoni try to
reassign the helicopters in Lugo. But
now it's late and the damage is done:
the school of Lugo has already
purchased, with the help of partners,
banks and foundations, the helicopters
required to operate the school.
In reiterating the thanks for the
attention you want to spend and what
measures will be taken as a result of
reporting, I offer
Respectful greetings.Respectful greetings.
