Straight from the TAIC, think that about clears it up.
Not really Cloud Cutter, I reads like he was probably just responding to a journo question based on the previous and probably wrong report.
Sounds much more like a TCAS alarm would have been sounded than GPW; given GPW doesn't usually go off on a well-flown final, and I can't imagine the crew of the QF34 doing anything other than best practice.
I don't think the TAIC spokesman was on the flight deck during this incident, just wondered if anyone has spoken with the crew that was flying and might have some facts?
Thanks anyway...
