Tick Tock goes the orange clock

Not much has changed at Crapstar since the A320's were phased in. Do a data analysis of the past 10 years worth of ATsB reported incidents and you will shit yourself. It's only a matter of time until one of these incorrectly loaded and/or incorrectly trimmed aircraft don't make it off the ground. It was worse when they did 25 minute turnarounds. An almost impossible task to do safely with 170 pax on and off. Big Trev was always popping foofer valves at the lack of OTP (no wonder really), and the little Irish mincer was always monitoring his bonus payments!

Gotta love this bit;

"..The short turnaround time combined with this being the last flight to Brisbane that night, along with the assumption there was a transcription error, resulted in the leading hand not requesting a new deadload weight statement and container card, and loading the incorrect container on the aircraft..."

Here it is below dissected for you Greg, as obviously you feel there are no safety risks with incorrectly loaded aircraft, much the same way that you feel aircraft that aircraft striking each other (light contact) also isn't a safety issue;

"The short turnaround time".

Yep, daily operational pressures all for the sake of earning the Executives massive salaries and bonuses. Safety last.

"combined with this being the last flight to Brisbane that night"

Mope operational pressure on crew and ramp staff. Safety last.

"the assumption there was a transcription error, resulted in the leading hand not requesting a new deadload weight statement and container card and loading the incorrect container on the aircraft..."

Incompetence? Laziness? Operational pressure? Culture? Or just safety last?

One day Professor Reasons cheesy holes are all going to line up....just sayin.
