Let's put this into proper perspective.

All this blood sweat and tears in Pprune and the media about a couple of relatively minor incidents investigated by ATSB.

Now if the media had unfetterd access to all the QAR reports (unstable approaches, excess airspeeds, flap/gear speed exceedances, high sink rates on final, excessive float, landing long etc), that stream in regularly each day to the domestic and international airline flight safety departments, can you just imagine the screaming headlines about dangerous practices in Australian airlines. Huge bubbles of complacency would burst and we would never hear the end of it all.
