Also ran; part 2.
ATSB Angus -
Oh oh - "without wanting to dodge the question" and immediately does. I would recommend careful study of the ATSB session (tedious though it is) for what is not said. Personalty, I wouldn't play cards with Angus, although if I ever wanted to change my nine dollar note for three three's he be my go-to man.
The legerdemain on display related to the Angel Flight 'data', the nifty footwork around the insidious CASA connection and the MoU combined with artful fast talking which sketches around the ATSB's woeful recent track record of muted response to accident where not mentioned. Mind you the fluffy questions served by McDolittle had all the penetrating power of a fart in a tornado, providing more than enough wriggle room for 'professional' wrigglers.
IMO, more than in any other 'session' in the McDolittle Quixotic quest we see just how far out of her depth the Senator is. Too many large scary windmills protected by clever, dangerous beasts. Where is Sen. Fawcett when industry needs him? A Sterle/Fawcett bipartisan inquiry is needed to unscramble the bipartisan mess.
7000, investigations - how many complete? How many passed on to CASA? How many tangible, realistic 'safety' improvements have resulted from the ATSB efforts? Where is the report into the Essendon DFO approval? Who is responsible for the 'statistical data' which damaged Angel Flight? Aye so many serious questions lost in the confusion of a simple teleconference; a thing managed thousands of times every day in any city you care to name. Pathetic don't quite cover it; but t'will suffice.
Toot - toot.
