Norfolk Island Ditching ATSB Report - ?

[Eddie Dean]

Goodness, me biased - never.
But be that as it may, ATSB investigators would not have expected so much interest to be paid to an Airwork accident, it's not a heavy into the mythical smoking hole is it?
The senate should have done more than thrash around in the bathtub, lots of noise and action, no progress. That process got bogged down in personalities, and people at the back of the room.
And I noted no recommendation for compensation.
CASA and ATSB stand in poor light over the Pel AIr report, but I suspect for reasons other than those pursued in the Senate.

I read that one of the Pilots had to take various tests for CASA to keep his ratings, and was able to pass first time, perhaps this means his skill set was as required for an ATPL.
