Four Seven Eleven, you state:

Why do you still not have the courage to answer your own thread about the Brisbane Virgin incident? What are you afraid of?

Can you tell me the particular question you would like me to answer? I will answer it promptly.
The question is simply:
Brisbane Virgin incident - what are the facts?
In your original post on this subject, you incorrectly stated that ” the air traffic controller, if following the correct training, could have prevented the planes getting so close together so that a collision warning in the Virgin plane was not triggered.”

In support of this proposition, you cited some documentation which was wrong, in that it had nothing to do with the Brisbane Virgin incident.

So, to repeat the question, and to take you on your word that you “will answer it promptly”, “what are the facts?”. (More specifically, what are the facts which explain how such a ‘horrific’ incident could have occurred, when all parties apparently followed AusNAS procedures correctly?)
