the company’s chief pilot martin scott, experienced pilot paul daw, who was undergoing a check flight, and a representative from the civil aviation safety authority (casa) stephen guerin, were killed in the accident. there were no survivors .
“it soon emerged through this partnership that there are natural operational, financial and fleet synergies and new opportunities in this market from essentially combining the skillsets of two iconic operators from two separate state markets, ” moloney said .
“certainly, the sa market will now have an unprecedented and competitive choice of fleet within this enlarged operation. ”
the australian transport safety bureau (atsb) said in its preliminary report into the accident published on june 30 an examination of the wreckage and surround ground markings indicated the cessna conquest vh - xmj hit the ground in an “almost vertical nose - down attitude” .

the plane, a nine - seater cessna conquest with the registration vh - xmj, was travelling between adelaide and the riverland .
casa said mr guerin had worked with the authority since 2008 as a flying operations inspector, and at times acted as a team leader — prior to that he was a pilot for a number of aviation operators .
mr carmody said mr guerin, who was sitting behind the pilot and check pilot at the time of the accident, was popular and
a very highly regarded pilot, a fine inspector and meticulous as a regulator
.
we know this was a check and training flight, these are routine activities that are conducted where pilots are being checked by other pilots, routine in australia, routine around the world but clearly something went wrong, there was a tragedy .
this [ accident ] is terribly surprising. as these things go, you have three very experienced pilots on board so something significant occurred and it will be important for us to work out this it is .
martin scott (left) was an experienced pilot and paul daw was retraining at the time they both died in the plane crash .
he said the company had
never had a major issue or incident
but could not comment on the possible cause of the crash. he said the business had
voluntarily grounded our operations
and was co - operating with investigators .
the company and all our staff have been profoundly impacted by this tragedy .
our thoughts and prayers are with the families, friends and colleagues of the deceased .
paul exuded aviation - he was a complete enthusiast ,
mr blake said .
paul was a very big family man and family was very important in his life .
he never let anybody down, he was always there for people and that is i think one of the biggest epitaphs i can offer .
the wreckage was found in scrubland about four kilometres west of renmark airport just after nightfall .
major crash investigators from adelaide arrived at the scene last night, and an australian transport safety bureau (atsb) team during this afternoon .
atsb' s neville blythe said early information suggested the plane did not explode on impact, and that was expected to be a big help for investigators .
we do understand there hasn' t been a post impact fire, which is very good from an investigation point of view ,
he said .
it doesn' t destroy evidence and that type of thing so we will be again taking our time to forensically go through everything in relation to the aircraft .
the atsb is also calling for any witnesses who were in the area about 4: 00pm yesterday .
a local anglican priest at renmark, paul devenport, said he saw the plane flying over the east of renmark moments before the crash .
i couldn' t see it totally but i could see it behind the trees, it was going quite low ,
he said .

in high school i decided that i wanted to learn to fly. i did not manage to do so for many years. after school i studied psychology and statistics at uct. over many years i have pondered how to integrate two of my passions: working with people, and, flying. after my undergraduate degree i worked at uct doing student advising with the students in university bridging programmes. from there i moved to the university of the western cape where i implemented a campus - wide student financial aid project .
in 1994, i left to study a master’s in intercultural management in the usa. aside from south africa in general, this became a time of personal transition. i realized that it was important for me to ‘live without regret’…this paradigm became the catalyst to following my dream. i found a flight school in san diego and began to learn to fly. completing my degree led me to do an internship in the crm section of north west airline’s flight operations, and 2 wonderful years in minneapolis .
in 2009 i studied personal life coaching. currently am practicing as a coach and working towards my accreditation. my field of focus and interest is coaching pilots, to explore the role and relevancy of coaching for flight crews. i hope to pursue this avenue in further graduate studies .
presently, i am spearheading the implementation of alpa’s wellbeing portfolio to establish structures to address the mental and emotional issues that confront pilots .
12 years on the saapa exco, 4 as vice - chairman and 3 as chairman.
