The latest round of ATSB reports are a bit of a joke and don't provide any real information to improve safety. However, this one takes the cake:
Investigation: AO-2013-128 - Collision on the ground involving a Cessna 172R, VH-IMS, at Sunshine Coast Airport, Queensland on 2 August 2013
A Cessna hits a light pole while taxing and it is worthy of the ATSB to investigate? Reading the report, they much have given it to an intern to investigate.
"The pilot learnt a valuable lesson" - what a crock of crap.
In another report about a TCAS RA the outcome is that pilots need to maintain situational awareness - no ****e Sherlock. They knew about each other, the SA was there, how about some real recommendations.
Meanwhile I hear about engine shut downs and wheel fires during the last fortnight, yet there's nothing on the ATSB website. Surely they are a bigger safety concern than hitting a light pole?
