ATSB update on McArthur River Mine accident

[Hasselhof]

Got into the car and caught the last half of an article on an ATSB update on the accident in Jan.

http://www.atsb.gov.au/publications/investigation_reports/2006/AAIR/aair200600256.aspx

This is the link for the ATSB Preliminary Accident Investigation Report. The new stuff is mostly under the factual information tab.

Also noted in the ABC News (http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/200603/s1590355.htm) and the Australian (http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,5744,18446906%255E29277,00.html)

Missing you mate.

Lets hope they find out what happened... as a low-time Pilot still in the very early days, nothing makes my blood run cold more than this accident. How can an 'apparent' serviceable aircraft just go down like that?

I have a couple of contacts with HA and spent some time up there, and Dale, I didn't know you, but you sounded like a bloody top Pilot mate :ok: RIP
