There were clear failings in the system before either of those aircraft got within a bulls roar of Adelaide let alone Mildura. That's the main story. Hopefully the full report is not farked up by incompetent, non pilot, public servants.

If I'm reading into the CRM that was intimated in the report going on in the Virgin cockpit it was remarkable. The FO observes on the first attempt that they were over the runway. Some airlines are incapable of flying visual approaches, look what both these crews achieved
