If you do nothing else today read -THIS – Grab a coffee and a comfy chair, prepare to enjoy a demonstration of the stark differences between that ‘then’ and this 'now'.
The link takes you to the ATSB report on an accident involving the beloved Chipmunk. Nah! - Skip the poorly written ATSB twaddle, that is just the usual milk and water pap ATSB seem to produce these days. Go to the appendices ‘A’ and read a real report from the old days, back when the ‘department’ had pilots who knew their trade and writers who could get the safety message delivered.
Food for thought, a banquet; not solely for the lessons taught, but a reminder of a trade and craft almost lost; the art of flying.
One loop closed. RIP Aviation Safety Digest.
Toot toot.
