From the article -
......It is true that the straight in approach with the tail wind component
could have been an attempt to save fuel, but that would be inconsistent
with Tiger’s insistence that safety is its number one priority.
And that, I feel, is where the problem lies - its Safety department probably
says one thing, and its beancounters (or worse) probably says another.
IMHFO nasty low cost crummy outfits like this one are the bane of this
industry worldwide.
