I said “allegedly” as it was heard from a source, and it depends who you refer to as the “first responders.” The second egg collecting helicopter was first on the scene.

I think it would be the ATSB that would determine that it was out of fuel. CASA couldn’t determine what they had for breakfast if you showed them the menu.

CASA-approved safety management system was not being used to systematically identify and manage operational hazards,”

What a surprise.

The ATSB also found that CASA delegates removed crucial conditions from crocodile egg collecting authorisations, making it more likely the sling person would be killed if the helicopter’s engine failed.

There will be some world-class ducking and weaving going on in CA$A.
