    Guessing this memo got missed. RAAUS definitely had lawyers there.

    "People are not understanding what they are hearing." Yep. Definitely applies to some. 🤷‍♂️ And some seem to have read news reports and be basing their comments on these. The Coroner's Findings are readily available, reattached here, but... COR 2022 005430 Form 37-Finding into Death Following Inquest_Signed.pdf

    I am no expert. But I thought the referral would cover more than the one board member? Perhaps those that knowingly tried to conceal information from the Coroner, including a senior employee who he was scathing about in the report?

    You stated it was an instruction. Now its an interpretation. 🤦‍♂️
  5. Love to fly
    The Coroner made a referral to the DPP. It's stated in his report. He didn't make an instruction to the DPP because this isn't something a Coroner does. 🤦‍♂️

    No suggestion of anything other than a medical event. I believe he was in his 80's. If you haven't read the Coroner's Findings as opposed to what's here, and in the media it may be worthwhile. Attached here for your convenience. COR 2022 005430 Form 37-Finding into Death Following Inquest_Signed.pdf

    I think maybe you missed the bit where it says he is deceased. It's stated in the Coroner's Findings.

    My early IFR lessons I struggled with S&L and upset recovery. Not just trusting the instruments, but retraining my brain to focus on them, treat the AH like it was the view out the window, and keep my scan going. Without an autopilot, reliable IFR instruments, practise and training it would be really really difficult.

    Would the pilot know anything about the risk of icing given the training he had received? Do unpowered paraglider pilots cover icing etc when training?
  10. Love to fly
    Were you not taught what the regulations are re distance from cloud, visibility etc?
  11. Love to fly
    Genuine question. What happened in 2013?

    Coroner’s Findings attached.COR 2022 005430 Form 37-Finding into Death Following Inquest_Signed.pdfCOR 2022 005430 Form 37-Finding into Death Following Inquest_Signed.pdf

    Cross country in an unpowered paraglider? Hmm, I've no idea but an interesting concept.
  14. Love to fly
    Given some were named on Friday by the Coroner, and referrals were made to the DPP..
  15. Love to fly
    Another hearing?? Coroner's Inquest finding was delivered last Friday. With some costs, quantum to be determined, awarded against RAAUS. Recommendations mafe by the Coroner included a review by CASA of RAAUS. There will undoubtedly be civil action against RAAUS given the findings. But 'another' hearing already scheduled and costed? 🤔 Tell us more

    Pilot, local to Mt Beauty, has said he left during a lull in the weather. Blue sky was visible. Guessing he thought he could get out safely.
  17. Love to fly
    Think you've mixed people? Matt Boutell went to casa. No longer there I'm told. And overreach? Hmm deliberately withholding relevant information from a Coroner is okay?
  18. Love to fly
    Written report not yet online. But it was livestreamed when he delivered it on Friday.
  19. Love to fly
    Given the referrals made to the DPP interesting times are ahead.
  20. Love to fly
    He did. He mentioned it in his report.
  21. Love to fly
    He had one hour in a 172 over 20 years prior. And over 200 hours in UNpowered paragliders. I've no idea how many touch n gos etc,or how recent the unpowered paraglider experience was.
  22. Love to fly
    Except you don't know what you don't know. So why was the wrong decision made becomes the question. And 4 flights and under 10 hours of instruction doesn't set anyone up for good decision making re wx and x country flights. Add in the behaviour of some and the Coroner's referrals to the DPP and this becomes something that may effect all of us. And please, never firget a life was losr and many impacted by this crash.
  23. Love to fly
    Except don’t think they are registering Group G aircraft yet, May 2025 is suggested start date.
  24. Love to fly
    Definitely a Sling 2

    We’re not talking Qantas, JetStar etc so not sure logistically how the pax numbers would logistically be immediately available?
