Tenretni and willadvise----------with regards to your comments concerning the YMIA TAF and the BKN 600 tempo. If you read my summary of the TAF's in post #577 and when they were issued you'd plainly see that when the crews made their decision and then diverted from YPAD the latest YMIA TAF did not contain any TEMPO.....and the METARS were ok.

I'll copy and paste it again from page 14 of the the ATSB report:---

Mildura TAF YMIA 172302Z 1800/1812 20008KT 9999 SCT030 SCT050 RMK T 08 12 13 10 Q 1020 1019 1019 1020

Like I said, LED DOWN THE GARDEN PATH.....
