PLovett,
Agreed that this was a multi-issue prang. The (lack of) CASA oversight of the Ops Manual, for example, makes me sick. No Stabilised Approach criteria? WTF?
Foxtrot is just another hole that could have been closed up, giving the poor (unrated) FO more of a chance of knowing what was going on. Foxtrot is not necessary, not having it would improve the safety of these approaches, and that would put an extra slice of cheese in the block, making it harder to line up the holes.
