Sarcs – the CVR/FDR differences are intriguing, but at least they were there. Another parallel that caught my eye was the 'missing' seconds in transcript. Was it Xenophon who drew the parallel between Australia and Lebanon??? – it was a while back. But the Ethiopian tale just goes to show how very important it is to be able to rely legally, operationally, financially and politically on a report from the national safety bureau.
If the Senate achieves nothing else – we cannot tolerate and must no longer accept reports like Pel Air. The entire episode must be re examined; then they can start on the travesty which is Canely Vale. Make no mistake about it, if you thought the NLK report was disgusting – wait until the Coroner gets to Andy Wilson and Cathy Shepherd and tries to sort the wheat from the chaff against the ATSB report and CASA fairy stories. Anyone with a shred of decency (or common sense) would withdraw the Canley Vale epistle before the spotlight is, for a second time, firmly on a group of people who are now exposed in dirty underwear, on stage, in full public view. Norfolk may be considered the allegro movement of our little symphony – not the finale.
An epiphany (from the ancient Greek ἐπιφάνεια, epiphaneia, "manifestation, striking appearance") is an experience of sudden and striking realization. Generally the term is used to describe scientific breakthrough, religious or philosophical discoveries, but it can apply in any situation in which an enlightening realization allows a problem or situation to be understood from a new and deeper perspective.
