The accident at Qantas’ T3 domestic terminal at around 1pm on Saturday saw the woman, believed to be in her forties, rushed to Royal Prince Alfred Hospital after falling around five to six metres, and being attended by first responders on the scene. She remains in an induced coma.

Starting on 17 June, the flights will shift to Brisbane to “streamline operations” in a shared service with Sydney and Melbourne. The 747-8F has a cargo uplift of 135 tonnes per flight, complementing Cathay’s existing cargo capacity in passenger aircraft.

In a damning report, the ATSB said complaints were received by CASA against Broome Aviation from both pilots and a passenger, one of which stated the mentality of the owner and manager wasn’t “conducive to safe aviation practices”.

VH-UZI's approach became unstable after the first officer accidentally pressed the wrong button, and the crew did not conduct a go-around, the ATSB found.
