Cue the press release about safety never having been compromised.
This is a blatant example of CASA being simply a political entity that pretends it is a safety watchdog. The Operator should have
had its Australian AOC suspended immediately for such basic incompetence. The Australian ATSB and it’s softly softly attitude to the
MH 70 disappearance is yet another example. CASA executives simply hide behind their desks, reap in their mega salaries, and
seriously would not know the flight deck from the tail.
