Nope, but hopefully we've all learnt to be a bit more sceptical about the absolute accuracy of weather forecasts, especially if we're on the bones of our ass for fuel! Seriously though, I think this incident was a big wake up call for the 'system'. The ATSB identified several areas where the pilots were let down, including the accuracy of the weather forecasts and the provision of SPECIs to aircraft in-flight, especially in situations where crews have to make rapid decisions under high workload. It's impossible to guarantee that an incident of this nature won't happen again. I think the best we can hope for is that we've learnt a few lessons and that the likelihood of a recurrence has been reduced.
