Perhaps my post was misunderstood, I was simply offering my opinion, as a professional pilot, on the procedures I used to prevent this problem, not to be seen to be criticising the crew, or attempting to sway the outcome of an inquiry without the facts.
Somebody asked a valid question regarding a significant occurrence, that I as a member of the travelling public who flies QANTAS occcasionally into CB have a right to know about. If this occurence had been publicised at the time instead of 2 months later via rumours and gossip, perhaps it wouldn't have been on the front page of the Canberra Times with captions like "2 seconds from death" etc.
