For those that haven't heard or read, the Federal Court adjourned proceedings and the airline will at the least be suspended until 11 August. A further Directions hearing is listed for that date.


Further to what others have said above

CASA said that the main outstanding issues are related to documentation that show how Tiger will address the "safety problems".
"We've been reviewing that documentation. We've found problems in it, and said to Tiger they've got to go back and fix those up," said CASA. The documents cover "everything from how the pilots fly the aircraft, to how the aircraft are operated themselves", it added.
The airline's Singapore-based parent, Tiger Airways, yesterday reported a net loss of Singapore dollar (S$) 20.6 million for the three months to 30 June due to high fuel costs and the impact of natural disasters in Australia.
