As has been mentioned before why was the aircraft so low so far from final destination. All modern 4 axis sar autopilots are designed to avoid such a scenario.
Does this reflect poor SOP’s?
These aircraft came from the company’s U.K. contract prior to Bristow takeover.
Was there not training and appropriate sharing of information or mentoring?
If there was how was it received or was there complete dismissal and a ‘know it all’ cavalier attitude?
Why have some ex U.K. sar or ex raf crew joined and promptly left again since?
Is it true to read from the transcript that Irish rear crew do not participate anywhere near as much in the flying role outside of on scene evolutions than U.K. or Scandinavian counterparts?
Do Irish crews train appropriately in low level IF, rear crew conned approaches to targets, Flir led transits?
Generally what are standards for CRM? Is a sub 90 minute lecture to 20 people from an off duty ryanair pilot enough as has been mentioned previously?
According to their company press releases their new manager of crew training is a candidate with no civilian or s92 experience and no all weather sar such as would be required. Though is it the aviation authority who have clearly washed their hands from the morning after this accident took place who approved such an appointment?
Overall will anything change or have changed?
Will there be any admission of errors other than blame on the crew in question?
Are relevant government departments or the contracting agency aware of potential shortcomings and their avoid-ability if true?
