 The 0803 lost in White rabbit obfuscation.

From the highly suspect, possibly illegally extracted, 16 December 2009 CASA interview of DJ:

As a reminder this was the weather update that Auckland broadcasted to VH-NGA at 09:02:

SPECI YSNF 180902Z AUTO 20007KT 7000 SCT005 BKN011 OVC015 20/19 Q1013 RMK RF00.0/000.0

However on reviewing the whole unrecorded interview Q&A session between MALIU Richard White & co for CASA vs DJ and his legal counsel, I note that there was never any question asked of DJ regarding whether he had received the 0803 AMD TAF or the 0739 SPECI.

This was despite there being factual evidence that Richard White was aware of the 0803 AMD TAF and the operational requirement alarm bells that should have rung if the flightcrew had received and disseminated that wx forecast.

T6 extract from CASA v DJ T documents (note date at the top of the page):

& from T5 page 7 of the T-documents listed as a 'document from audit conducted':

 Note that this investigative summary and update was completed before the Hood 24 December 2009 suspension decision notice. Therefore we can only presume that Hoody was not privy to this additional information, otherwise it would have been included in the notice correspondence and by rights DJ would have had his licence cancelled rather than suspended.

This non-inclusion of this critical factual information and the fact that it wasn't a featured question in the 16 December DJ Q&A, would suggest to me that White, Chambers, Campbell and Co. were either totally inept; or already fully cognisant of the fact that the flightcrew of VH-NGA never received either the 0803 AMD TAF or the 0739 SPECI ...
