P2, thank you for your last post. A long but very succinct (and disturbing) post presented in a way that let's the viewer really see how the understanding of safety, risk, and hazard identification is not understood by at least two regional airports, CAsA, ASA and ATSBeaker.
And when I didn't think there could be anything more ludicrous than "Bill'duras" comments, along comes another airport backwater comment by another supposed airport guru;
"But airport manager Neil Weatherson said Ballina was one of the safest airports he has ever worked at.
"I'm not sure why it's become unsafe all of a sudden," he said.
"We've had a number of reports over the years from CASA (Civil Aviation Safety Authority) saying that there's no safety issue here".
Gotta love the bolded bit!! It's safe because CAsA said it is!! Neil, old mate, if that is what you base your safety comfort level on then I would suggest every commercial operator flying near, around, over or into Ballina should be shitting themselves! What world are these airports operating in? While planes are playing peekaboo in shite weather we have airport management sipping coffee and playing Charlie Charlie blissfully unaware of what is transpiring in the air above their airports (and their local suburbs).
So that is strike 2/2 for airports having no clue about safety methodology. Surely (and not that I want to) we can make it 3/3??
FFS boys, this shit is getting downright scary!
Yes P2, I totally agree mate........TICK TICK TICK TICK
