What an awful report (content).

I had to read it a few times. Scud running in a jet, not visual on final at 400'.... for some reason I can hear my old bosses (ex Bushies) words on a route check about our RPT op into Cooktown some years back:

'what are you trying to achieve? Bodies from A to B. If you don't get in, is it a big deal? Take the fuel and come on home'.

The irony is they were shutdown in oz by the regulator and their PNG op took down (quite literally RIP) a CAA FOI in it's demise.

Very sad. Does their C208 operation still exist in PNG? I am out of the loop.
