My feeling is the report may suggest that the pilot felt the need/duty/desire to return to Bankstown. Whether this is a real or perceived commercial pressure is another issue. In the real world nobody wants a bent a/c in their log book - whether it was your fault or not. Maybe that's something in aviation culture that needs changing. Certainly there are airlines that will not employ a pilot with any accident history, irrespective of the cause/outcome
The old saying "
the second engine in a piston will only carry you to the crash site" somehow seems to fade after a few thousand twin hours.
In some ways it's not fair to critic what happened. BUT, I know everybody learns from investigations and I do hope there's a lesson in this at the end of the day
