Does the QF SMS include the very current risk of these discussions having a negative impact on operational capability and flight safety and has CAsA considered this in their role as the safety oversight regulator?
The same sort of discussions have been going on for at least the last 15-20 years, without having any apparent ‘negative impact on operational capability and flight safety’. Otherwise, how long would it have taken for people to be able to operate safely after something like the 2011 lockout?
