Who cares what Air Asia thinks of the content of an ATSB report. Their aircraft was proven unsafe. The facts must be reported in a full and accurate manner. regardless of a potential loss of face. This report has taken far too long to be finalised. Definitely some dodgy dealing going on. Disgusting! |
Just to clarify, we're talking about (at least) TWO inordinately delayed reports here - both for Air Asia
9M-XXE following event near Carnarvon, WA - July 2017 and 9M-XXC - BNE July 2016 |
There is more also...I’ve actually lost count over the years of how many they had going at any given time so there could be more. Engine Shutdown 2016 https://www.atsb.gov.au/publications...r/ao-2016-101/ OOL Alt Bust 2016 https://www.atsb.gov.au/publications...r/ao-2016-124/ |

As the north-western part of Australia had sparse coverage of available alternate aerodromes, the operator had included Learmonth in the list of nominated aerodromes, but specifically as an emergency alternate. While Learmonth was significantly closer at the time of the engine failure, an emergency alternate aerodrome was only to be used in the case of a dire emergency. |
Apparently a siezed engine shaking the 5hit out of the aircraft is not dire??
Whatever, Air Asia, you get exactly what you deserve |

What's the definition of a 'dire emergency'?

I certainly won`t fly with this mob, heard they got rid of a bunch of seniors recently and the leftovers are junior guys that like to hang out with the director of flight ops, guess that`s why they are still there. The guys that had these incidences, the dive and drive in gold coast in Sept 2016, the pedal to metal at 400ft out of Tullamarine, and the incident in Aug 2016 that RTB to melbourne from Sydney with an engine failure, the crew tried starting the badly damaged engine not once but twice instead of diverting to AS😖,it pays to hangout with the boss.
Nope i definitely won`t fly with them regardless how cheap the tickets are, and if they cancel the flights, which seems to happen with these bunch, the chances of getting a refund is slim to none, caveat emptor. |
