As a result of this occurrence, the BoM's analysis and report of the meteorological aspects of the occurrence included the following recommendations:
UITA asked.." Any further follow up from atsb??" According to the ATSB database apparently not!

What is even more alarming is that despite the issue seemingly listed as a 'Safety recommendation' there is no record listed as a SR or safety action or 'Safety advisory notice'.

Which begs the question was it ever recorded? Or was it recorded then binned when the ATSB changed over the database? Either way it would appear that safety issues/actions related to this incident are lost forever unless you happen to read the incident report.

Here is a link for all the SRs and 'Safety actions' addressed to the BoM, 'see here' .You should find that there is 1 page with 9 entries, one of which includes the 2000 Norfolk Island R20000040.

Maybe (in defence of the ATSB) the Safety Actions highlighted, in this incident, were addressed to the local BoM office and that is why it has slipped through the gaps. Either way I agree Jungmeister, good catch!

Priceless Creamy!

Thanks for that CC..another perfect opportunity missed...darn!! Kind of sounds like the current Beakerised methodology on safety actions..."err they fixed it so what are you worried about...nothing to see here!"
