A suggestion would be to look at the aircraft and see if there are prop strike marks. On which plane and where. That would go a long way to determine who hit who. (Though that is dependent if such strike marks exist and are found) -
Na. not going to justify that.
-
Yeah, ok.... We (all of us) are now making this a pissing contest. It happened. People died. How it EXACTLY happened: no one will ever know. But we need to learn from it. I hope that doesn't mean we all have to fly million dollar planes. (to say)
-
Has CASA looked at the radios of both planes yet? (Ah, the old days when you had dials to set the radio frequency. These days you need to apply power to the radio as the frequency is shown on the display.) 😉
-
(Not at thruster88) So if the Cessna was in the circuit why wasn't it on the Oaks frequency?
-
How do I do that - please. Don't worry. Worked it out. For anyone who is interested:
-
Facthunter..... Yes, I agree. But it is/are these things which contribute to things happening. It is not THE cause of the accident, but they are factors which align the holes in the cheese. That with other factors allow nasty things to happen. Well..... There are time when it does make the big plane crash... (Oh, I miss AirCrash Investigations)
-
I so much agree with you onetrack. The CFI is testing you and he is concentrating on doing that. When near airports this can lead to task overload on both parties. More of the Swiss cheese holes lining up.

Sorry? "I'm pretty sure its the plane I am thinking of but I might be wrong" Only you know that answer. 🤷♂️
-
I am sure the number will come out as time goes by.

My take is the QANTAS pilot was flying the Cessna 182. The Jab was in a prang a year ago.... Not that that is really relevant..... I think that is the news trying to sensationalise something. And AFAIK, the other people have not been identified or named. 19:19 Sydney time.
-
Well, asred750 just said: Where did you get your news?
-
Just heard one of the pilots was an ex QANTAS pilot (sorry, no more details.)
-
Was watching a clip on youtube. This was funny.

so ideally the Cessna should've been at 2500 feet AMSL when over flying the oaks. Does the flight track mentioned above give altitude of the Cessna? That seems to be a very interesting part of the puzzle.
-
interesting observations from what I've heard: If the jabiru had only just taken off how is such a large flight track shown on the history from the flight tracker? Why was the Cessna flying so low if going to Wollongong. They should have been at least 1500 AGL when flying over the oaks. It would be interesting to see if both aircraft radios were on the oaks frequency or on Sydney radar frequency. If they were not both on the same frequency, then neither would have known of the other plane in the vicinity.

Qantas take off at Perth - rips up runway.

So I wonder where it (The vampire) landed? -
Saw it on the news. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2024/sep/16/qantas-flight-qf71-perth-airport-damage-repairs And on youtube Ooops! I think someone will need to explain why this happened.
-
I started to watch that. It looked good and good on the guy who is trying to do it. But he babbles on and on and on and repeats himself so many times, it is painful to watch.
-
-
Ah. Yeah, but when I saw it, it was like at 3000 feet and climbing.
-
I was walking and heard it taking off. Looked up. Yeah, Jumbo. Cathay Pacific. CPA 3128 As I was looking I noticed it did NOT have the turn ups at the wing tips. So it is/was a CLASSIC. Wow!
