I wondered if the delay had anything to do with assessing risks, such as pressure decrease from opening the door setting off explosives, or making sure doors weren't set to set a bomb off if opened. A quote from one cop seems this played a role in the delay, but 90 minutes, seriously long time to leave people in limbo.

yeah....nah  :rolleyes:

Yes but the SOG group were state as each airport doesn't have an AFP SOG group.

"It is understood the delay was partly caused by the failure of an on-call officer to respond to an emergency message. 

Officers responding to the crisis were further held up, after being unable to locate firearms and body armour, the source said."

Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy...and so safe  :unsure:

You couldn't write such material that well in a Will Farrel Movie. 

This Country/City is a sitting duck for a huge terror attack and the Federal and State Authorities have absolutely no idea how to handle it, in the slightest. 

If i was on that plane last night i would be on the phone to my Lawyer right away. 

The Commonwealth can pay up

Interesting. I thought each Airport had there own assigned SOG's from Federal Departments.

In these troubled times with nutters everwhere trying to deliver their " messages" no matter what collateral be the cost it's heartwarming to know we're so well protected.

Thankyou Andrew  ( no 'S' :unsure: )

Seriously...some real concerns here. No sooner has a Coroner handed down a report that in essence highlights the paucity of capacity of one  State's ability to react than another situation suggests it's cultural across borders.

This could have gone very badly.

I may well be wrong, but I would be surprised if each airport had an entire SOG group on stand by 24/7.

I guess the thing is by the sounds of it, this guy was not a real terrorist, rather just a local looney. A serious terrorist would have had a field day, despite Chells BOG performance.

I am not 100% sure either mate, although considering the amount of people who go through just the International Building each day, i would hope Trained Security is close by. 

Last Night was a complete fail. Those passengers are safe because of  cool headed pilots and sheer luck. 

In 90 minutes anything could have happened!

1) It might be possible to argue anyone running towards the cockpit yelling I have a bomb and am going to blow you up might just qualify him as a .....terrorist. You aren't to know his bonefide until later ( if you're lucky )

2) All terrorists are looneys !!

From what I heard this morning the Vic SOG group where there within 20 minutes of the call (I assume the call was made before the plain landed but who knows). A response time of 20 minutes out to the airport isn't too bad really. 

If that is from when the call came in from the plain then I would think they would have been there about 10 minutes after the plain landed. That means there is another 80 minutes to account for. 

Take10 minutes for a situation analysis by the SOG and planning (questions like is the bloke armed, is he restrained, what does the 'bomb' look like etc) from the 80 minutes, some more time for nullifying any risks (such as triggered doors etc that I mentioned earlier), this might be another 10 minutes by the time the crew of the plain check doors etc, and there are still another missing 60 minutes!

What the hell were they doing for this hour!

You don't think  most of that info couldn't have ALREADY been conveyed to the  ground. The nuff nuff was restrained. AIr crew could resume talking to the  cockpit etc.

This just has ballz up painted all over it.

The response team should have been ready and waiting for that plane..  should have already been pretty well worded up..I mean ffs it's what they're supposed to do ..isn;t it ?

Agreed. I was being generous with my time allocations but the process is what you are talking about being done before they are even there. Even doing a second check of all decisions after the plain landed they are left with a lot of time unaccounted for!

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
