“The Caravan pilot had been provided with traffic information by the Ballina Airport surveillance flight information service controller, but the controller had not specified the landing direction of the 737 and the pilot had not sought this information."
Why? Seems like a pretty crucial information and pretty much the only thing the SFISC would be good for
This too seems a big issue (if it's under not just arse covering)
"The report also notes that the SFIS controller did not issue a safety alert as they were concerned that doing so would result in over transmitting communications between the 737 and Caravan."
