Its a disgrace that the only two parties that could have known, one or both has leaked them to the media.
The same two parties were involved in the Show Cause process, CASA at the Senate Estimates hearing categorically denied any one of their team talking to the media. The S.S. had a ring around and asked each one personally. So it must have been Tiger for all that extra free publicity?
Wake up Australia, QF is again struggling as it was in the Ansett episode, any commonalities?

Disclosing information to the media or any unauthorized person is an offense for Commonwealth Officers and carries a maximum penalty of two years imprisonment (Crimes Act 1914 s70). If anyone from CASA spilled the beans they'll be hunted down. I'd think that if they seriously suspected a leak it would have been bigger than a ring around, more like an email scanning, phone record reading, intimidating-interviews-for-all extravaganza.
Never say never, but I'd be surprised if any of their people took the risk for what's basically a tabloid tidbit. Tiger on the other hand; what have they got to lose by pointing the finger at one individual and yelling 'it was him what done it, everything else is peachy!' Not making accusations, just asking the question.
All the best to the pilot. With a few notable exceptions, Media suck.

Bit tricky this one. It is unlikely that any Tiger employee, unless they are a sociopath or psychopathic would intentionally throw such a massive sh*t grenade. I also personally know former and current Fort Fumble inspectors and I doubt they would risk an all expense paid holiday with her majesty over a bit of idol gossip.
The reality is however that there are few well kept secrets in aviation and anything of relevance always tends to leak out one way or the other.
The ATSB investigation will no doubt shed more light on the issue and I certainly hope that errors or violations are taken into account when determining the outcome.

Paxing crew, operating cabin crew, his f/o, gnd ops crew, company managment - and it needn't have been done maliciously by any of them. Overheard having a chat over coffee in the smoko room, or a beer after work. Well you would all know it's a relatively small industry and everybody knows someone who knows someone...
Hope it works out all right for him and he's not 'duty scapegoat'.

Suggest you check McCormick's reply to the Senate to get an indication of the Thoroughness of the internal check! this is CASA we are talking about.

dont make me laugh....
Anyone from CASA doing criminal/evil things... being hunted down?
Gawd.. I nearly fell off my chair..!
aiglet is right. CASA looks after its own... as I know.
Leak? From the media/corporate comunications office to get the ball rolling, would be my guess.
Everyone in the Oz aviation industry should know by now that with CASA...
ANYTHING goes.
