Ginjockey,
Couldn't agree more. ATSB only reported what they (and the coroner) found and it would have been wrong of them NOT to report the findings in total. They went to some length to point out the postmortem aspects of their findings which I think was fair and reasonable in the circumstances. Also, remember 5 others died in this crash too....not just the pilot....so there certainly is some strong interest in the findings no doubt with several years of legal wrangling in the offering at a later stage (if it hasn't commenced already).
I do have one question for all the naysayers though.....what the hell is a professional pilot doing smoking dope AT ANY TIME? and to the chap who said that to breath test pilots was putting their livelihoods on the line (or words to that effect), doesn't the same apply to the truckies, cabbies, bus drivers etc etc that are breathtested regularly? Don't think for one moment that we are somehow any different from them because quite frankly we are not.
