I do.
(More characters needed to post reply)... so "characters" are the operative word. EDIT to add: There are "compliant" characters and "protected" characters and then just "characters" and sometimes just "operators". |

So you believe that what they generally get up to contributed to the engine failure in this accident?
DF. |
The pilot quoted engine failure to the media (allegedly).
|
Where does it say CFIT? who said it was a CFIT? ATSB report stated collision with terrain. It looks to me like engine failure, a low level turn to make it onto the beach followed by a stall during a probable steep turn. |
If you watch what's in the links posted above, the pilot said that he was going to put it down on the edge of the water but was concerned about drowning his passengers so headed for the land instead and whacked the dunes.
|
You are right, but I thought for such extensive damage to occur would have involved a low level drop, followed by a cartwheel.
|
Desert Flower: No.

I haven't looked at the videos, but regardless of "what these flights generally get up to" I don't believe they have any relevance to the accident in question.
DF. I got to 20s. That was enough. |
Hmm yeah you reckon you would edit out the cardboard box ingestion!
I hadn't seen that one. |

Seems like CASA may have acted. From the 1770 charter web page.
27Jan17: 1770 Castaway regret to advise that we have cancelled all tours until further notice. We have only been given the advice today & apologize to all customers for cancelling their much anticipated experience. Currently booked passengers are to contact their travel agent in regards to refunds or if you have booked directly with us, then contact us directly. |
Final report out. https://www.atsb.gov.au/publications...r/ao-2017-005/ |
Carry out a landing inspection in a landing direction. Good idea.
|
Wow what a depressing report. So many bad actions and carelessness and I am only 25 pages in 😟
|
It's also very sad that Bruce (the Chief Pilot) passed away only last month.
|
I thought the paragrahs about missing recording devices was...interesting. |
It’s frustrating when the ATSB gets bogged down with these things. Does it make any difference to the investigation? Maybe! Do they need to even mention it in the report? No. It has no bearing on the accident and makes no difference to me as a reader. The ATSB seem to get easily distracted! |
