The RFDS train their pilots to land with 6 Kero cans only ( limited flare path ) this consists of 4 on the left side of strip and one at each end on the right side. As for turning back with bad weather. RFDS pilots are very experienced guys and they have done all that before, They have rules to follow and they do. No point in risking 3 lives to save one.
But that is beside the point, ALL pilots need more money for what we do. Well done to the RFDS guys for doing something about this.
