The Unacceptable from the Unspeakable.
ATSB - “The investigation has involved consideration of historically complex subject matter with the application of both Australian and international aerodrome design requirements dating back to the 1970.”
BOLLOCKS.....
"DFO Essendon is in the Melbourne suburb of Essendon Fields, approximately 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) north of the Melbourne central business district. It opened in October 2005."
What in the name of best Kook-Aide is the bearded Popinjay supping on now? This is supposed to be a 'safety inquiry'; the 'context' of which should have been decided and promulgated donkeys years ago, ICC appointed and approved – not an 'audit' - end of...
The 'safety case' seems simple enough to most; in 1970 there was were no close in 'tall buildings' then, not even considered.– well you know the history – millions made and the aerodrome land and surrounds raped.
But the real issue, the elephant on the runway is the DFO and the approval process. Did the construction impinge on ICAO mandated 'safety zones' or did it not? In short, was the thing legal under the rules at the time? Have rules been manipulated since to accommodate vested interests since? Nothing whatsoever to do with 1970 -
Whether Quartermain would/could have extricated the aircraft from the event had the DFO not been there is academic. The point is, it was there and he hit it.
Why have the ATSB not done a forensic investigation into the pilots past actions, particularly the event at Mt. Hotham and his 'true' medical condition; opinion related to the 'May-day call outs etc.. Something went very, very wrong that day – and the bullshit Hood spouted about 'full left rudder' being the take off trim setting does not pass the Pub test; not in the opinion of over 50 Be200 pilots with a total (collective) time on type in excess 100,000 hours.
Why are ATSB so desperately playing for time and combing ancient clauses, those consigned to the basement and rats, instead of asking the basic questions? – Who gains, who profits and who losses from the approval, the construction and the happy hearse-feathers from them leading the parade down the long, winding road to perdition. The bomb landed on the ATSB desk – the mutt running the show is desperate to get out from under; someone has to catch the bomb – and the wee bearded Popinjay is the blustering fool stood directly in the bulls eye. Aye; its not all bad news then, is it children..
Tick Tock... tick-tock says the DFO clock...
