HL that would have to be a very enlightened CP to have done this:

We operate similar aeroplanes and the Chief Pilot yesterday took the ATSB report, made a copy for every pilot in the company, and went through all the salient points asking for the crew's imput on where we might be making the same mistakes.
Unfortunately too many people do not read anything to do with flight safety even a report that is thin on some aspects of the flight. The reduction in standards of flight safety information coming from CASA and the ATSB certainly doesn't help. Posting on Prune is only preaching to the converted. Even if this report was the most stunning breakthrough in accident investigation it would not reach the hands of most of the people who would benefit most and that is the majority of GA M/E pilots. I don't even consider that its apathy or a "Gen Y" thing. The message needs to be taken to where the pilots work and that requires some sort of adequately resourced education group be it private or government. Unfortunately there is probably no money in it for private enterprise and there is no interest from government in really making a difference to GA safety.
