The ATSB are listed for 1730-1800 EDST (0630UTC), although times are indicative only & quite often there are delays. However for those wanting to monitor proceedings refer to the 'Watch Parliament' webpage, under the listing for Rural and Regional Affairs and Transport Legislation Committee.
Otherwise I will endeavour to copy video across to You Tube within the following 24hrs. Hansard is also usually available a couple days past the public hearing...cheers P2
Thanks for the welcome Peetwo, I guess I got my post through ok. Thanks for the links, will be checking those out soon enough. I've been reading up on the Pel Air disaster, what a crock of proverbial "chit" that one was. Wow I am utterly shocked what has transpired there or what has not, definitely not what I would've expected from a national transportation agency. I guess I'm used to the NTSB and how thorough they have been during investigations of past air incidents. A little unsettling to see that this case was like buried under the proverbial carpet....going to do some more reading. Again thanks for the welcome, looking forward to more information on ATSB and MH370. It appears to me as though this case has been left up to regular folks to figure out and that really has me wondering why?? But i'm not an expert at anything except being a frequent flyer So I will read up and learn. Kudos to all those involved in trying to solve the biggest aviation mystery in our time.

No problem Bugsy...
Also FYI on PelAir debacle - Overdue and Obfuscated #59 :

But the old question still stands, will the report be not only overdue, but obfuscated?
Before you race off to place your bets, we have some ‘interesting’ little wisp’s of rumour floating around, which may temper your ardour for the favourite. The first tantalising wisp is that the ‘Invisible Manning’ and only the IM is allowed to tinker with the final draft. That could just be simply to add credibility and/or deniability to the report. Some prefer to take a slightly darker view, drawing inferences which make sense.
Another wisp of purely unsubstantiated gossip is that original IIC the and Manning have spent days and days together, discussing the whole sorry episode. Again, it makes sense that the original IIIC and IM would spend a little time together; but, a short session would indicate lip service to a report, the more time spent, the more detail and understanding is gained. This is a positive sign. The IIC was treated most shabbily, sent off to the pencil sharpening cupboard and only allowed to play with small, insignificant make work pieces. If the Manning report is to have any credibility then a full apology and re-instatement of the original, first class IIIC would lend much respect to a report which will need to withstand some intense, domestic and international scrutiny.
Aye well, we shall see and we shall compare. Manning is deemed to be a good egg and should the rumours be true, then the movie and the book will be worth a look see. We shall wait until Negroni publishes and Warner Brothers call ‘Action’.
No, you bearded buffoon, it’s only over in your mind. MH 370 was not a good place to hide, you’ve got that wrong too. No matter, July is not too far away now then you can slither off to the pencil sharpening cupboard to learn how to do something of value. The Merde’k approved method for where to shove a pencil and how to rotate it. Maybe he’ll give you the pink ones to start with.
What angel shall
Bless this unworthy husband? he cannot thrive,
Unless her prayers, whom heaven delights to hear
And loves to grant, reprieve him from the wrath
Of greatest justice. (AWTEW)

Peetwo, thx much for the links. Read up on this and watched the video. Who did the recovery operation of the parts of aircraft and the black boxes? I don't know my geography that well, but that norfolk island is quite far away from Australlia, had no idea. So when was this done? The report will be out soon, no? Its a wonder to me how governments can obfuscate as I've seen this word many times in this forum. That poor dear Karen was put through the proverbial ringer and she was the victim. Holy Chit mon, if this can happen with a known what happened incident, I can see why the mh370 investigation has been a total chit show from the get go. I see that regular people are doing the investigating which is very disturbing to me. Appears Malaysia not want the plane found ever, governments get away with a lot of things these days, seems nobody wants to hold anyone accountable for questionable actions or non-actions. Sad state of affairs.

Making some sense of THAT footage???
As I watched the footage, music in the background...then the plane and my stomach churned. An applaud for recovering the Black Box, then a tour of the island.
Glad you all enjoyed yourselves on board. Land Ahoy!
Whoever edited, posted and obviously had the blessing from the commissioned vessel.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
This is serious, not a little boat trip to an old wreckage.
It is a current federal investigation.
So why is it that NGA is moving into year seven with still no closure, except a "lovely, happy clappy video.
I speak for myself only as I can assure you the DIPs were not told about the salvage nor the media, until much later, of course.
Then this pops up, attempting to the softening seriousness of this incident.
If the same disgusting display of an almost tourism video regarding the salvage of MH 370, I am sure the person would be fired due to aggravating the already emotional turmoil of their NOK. There would be an uproar.
Yet I am to sit and watch the plane being pulled out of the ocean that I was in and just "cop it".
It is not morally, ethically or in any way right.
Trying to make a wrong look right is simply sickening.
