I thought it an April Fool's spoof.
“Based on a review of the available evidence, the ATSB considered it was unlikely that further investigation would identify any systemic safety issues. Additionally, in the context that the investigation examined a time period associated with the early implementation of an SMS, it was also assessed that there was minimal safety learning that was relevant to current safety management practices. Consequently, the ATSB has discontinued this investigation.”
It is not.
The event occurred October 2017.
Report released March. 2020.
Cost – unknown.
Benefit to industry – Zero.
The event.
“As part of the occurrence investigation into the In-flight upset, inadvertent pitch disconnect, and continued operation with serious damage involving ATR 72, VH-FVR.”
Opinion: Please carefully consider those events; in operational terms and then tell me what any of that has to do with SMS. Piss poor operation of an aircraft; dreadful crew coordination, seriously flawed inspection and continued operation of an aircraft with a seriously damaged tail section? It is bullshit; pure, undiluted, cynical, irresponsible crapola.
(AO-2014-032) investigators explored the operator's safety management system (SMS), and also explored the role of the regulator in over sighting the operator's systems.
Disgraceful and dangerous.
