turboplanner Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 When posting a new thread in Incidents and Accidents, could people please include the make of aircraft if known; accident/fatal etc; date. We now have about 10-15 years of data in this section and often, if we can pick up a previous make of aircraft or the date we can correlate similarities., or build statistics by year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are guidelines for headings on accident threads. In particular, include the date and location. If someone adds a post 6 or 12 months down the track, readers seeing the thread header may think it is a new accident. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IBob Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 5 hours ago, BrendAn said: How did you change the heading of my post without my permission. Are people allowed to do this. Brendan, first thanks for posting the link. For future reference, and particularly when posting about accidents and incidents, it is a good idea to post some detail and a date in the thread title. This does three things (that I can think of): 1. It means when someone adds to the thread, and it pops to the top of the "What's New' list, people can see what and when it is about. If what they see is 'Another Accident', every time the thread is added to and it pops up, it looks like yet another new accident......until you read down the thread and realise it is not. Which gets a bit tiresome. 2. It makes it very easy for folk to decide which threads to look at each time they visit the site........they can scan down the What's New, visiting or revisiting the specific items that interest them. So a specific thread title helps with this. Eg I have continuing interest in the recent US Air Show Crash.......and that thread is headed 'US Air Show Crash' with the date, so it is very easy for me to visit or revisit that thread. 3. It helps avoid multiple threads for the same event: again, if the thread title is specific, others are unlikely to start a new thread, so all the posts on that subject will tend to be on just the one thread, and so easily accessed. For me, this site has been and is a wonderful resource........while I was building, and now while I am flying. About the only drawback with the place is that there is such a huge amount being posted over the years, it can be hard to find your way around. The search function is one tool that helps there. And the other thing would be clear labelling of threads. Thanks, and blue skies. 3 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thruster88 Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 It is in the RAAus data base, the pilot no doubt submitted a factual report, we just have to wait for that report to go thru the head office rewrite using non aviation language so we can guess as to what happened 😁😂🤔😎😥🙄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossK Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 Kangaroos doing what they do best. STATUS: Under review OCCURRENCE DETAILS SUBMITTED TO RAAUS: The aircraft was tracking BAXT to YSCO at 2500 feet. Approx. 25nm south of Scone, an unusual noise developed in the aircraft and got progressively worse over a period of approx. three minutes. Power was reduced and a severe vibration commenced. A call was placed to Brisbane Centre that the aircraft was experiencing difficulties and would be immediately commencing a precautionary search and landing and an approx. position given. A quarry haul road was selected as the best option due to the terrain and proximity of a farm residence. A decent was immediately commenced with a track over the farmhouse at low level. A landing was commenced on the haul road. Once established on the ground and about 80 metres into the roll-out, several kangaroos came across the road and one or maybe two were struck by the left wing of the aircraft. This placed the aircraft into a sliding rotation and the right wing struck the embankment which resulted in the aircraft rotating further and coming to rest against the embankment at 90 degrees. This had caused the nose-wheel to collapse and the left main damaged in the table-drain. The pilot shut down all systems and exited the aircraft uninjured. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will always go to the scene when they can, and these days they have access to electronic emergency reports. so can write a story from the desk if it's deadline day.

Thruster88 Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 I was thinking the propeller blades sheared of in the landing. Reading the report about increasing vibration perhaps they went fa coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i bet his/her heart sank when after putting it down on a gravel road, in undulating terrain with trees, rolling out, thinking " I've pulled this off!" and then several roos come out to ruin the day! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFguy Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 I have never seen roos on haul roads on any of those sort of mines. Maybe it's just where I go. nevertheless, a good effort by the pilot to get it onto some unoccupied ground . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kangaroos generally stay right away from such places. But you can guarantee that when you've almost pulled off a successful landing in the most unlikey scenario, a Kangaroo will be there to ruin your day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
