"I did. I was referring to Teeemms comment that Aussies had been flying in the area for years."
Yes, they have, for decades, but that doesn't mean this particular crew had that experience. An "inaugural" flight would indicate that it was new to the current network. It may well have been a destination in years past, but that's irrelevant to current crews if the place hadn't been flown into for some time.
"30° offset, of course it does."
It's more than 30 degrees, closer to 40 degrees.
"Because none are mentioned by the ATSB, as I said."
So because the ATSB don't mention them, they have none? What rubbish.
"If that approach was following their SOPs..."
And the evidence is where that it wasn't?
"the location and height of the missed approach point, which was well below a normal 3 approach profile" Seriously??"
Yes, seriously. Look at the chart - missed approach at 500' at 2.9 DME. How is that on a 3 degree profile?.
