The above story relates to grounding faulty Diamond DA42 training aircraft. FTA continued flying these faulty aircraft, by unqualified cadets, over residential areas (with unresolved engine problems) for over two years! The community was informed that stalling aircraft (over housing) was part of training! The page was pulled off the net about a week after print, but a web page copy can be found linked here:
Clearly, the practice of isolating people expressing concerns that effect airport stakeholders' inconsiderate greed is evident in some local newspaper forums. Also, many (now elderly) were active in the past, have written to MPs etc, but currently do not use the internet. In the past, almost all public concerns got funnelled to Airservices Australia and Airport management, who use privacy arguments to stop peoples’ legitimate concerns from being shared/consolidated, then create a false perception by labelling people as a minority of whingers, while disregarding their rights to civic amenity, resulting in considerable misery and ill health. Critical letters, even to various MP’s, were also effectively forgotten, as MPs consulted Departments of Aviation, they consult Airservices Australia, who in turn do not measure and report the true amount of flight training pollution.

This is about public HEALTH AND SAFETY. These Diamond DA42's have been failing over our homes since they arrived in early 2007. Flight Training Adelaide then claimed they have to train pilots for emergencies, like engine failures, trying to cover up that in these cases the failures were uncontrolled!! (see p7 of Parafield Airport Newspaper Samples for 2008.pdf) Does the ATSB know this?
