How many people read ATSB reports fully, a few hundred?? 4 Corners has a viewing of 800,000+. How else does a guy like Dominic (who should be referred to as the PIC or CPT not named), get his side of the story out? One guy against 2 very powerful government organisations acting suspiciously! What would you do. This stinks BAD!!!! The PIC has had the guts to stand up and face the questions. All he gets in response is "no comment" from Pel-Air, absolute embarrassing waffle from The CC of the ATSB (cant get any worse), and the Skull telling war stories about doing off-track oceanic diversions by long hand 40 years ago!
The PIC knows what mistakes he made and you can read that through his demeanour on 4 Corners. This report must be withdrawn and a new investigation re-written for the industry to learn from this. Maybe Geoff Thomson could head up the ATSB rather than Beaker!
