The coroner is inquiring into the nature of the death, how they died and factors that led to that. It's not just about 'cause of death', cause of death would be directly related to the impact sequence. How the person came to be in that situation asks a few more questions and does intermix with the ATSB accident report. A few items in the ATSB report seemed to imply there was contributing factors beyond the pilot flying into IMC inadvertently such as possible commercial pressure to 'have a go' and so on, which could have had Worksafe implications and such. The ATSB report does diverge from the accident investigation into a more general investigation into the company and CASAs handling of the company, which is where the Coroner has picked points on about what it has to do with the accident in question.
