Speaker: Mr Greg Hood AO, former Chief Commissioner of the Australian Transport Safety Bureau.

Greg will talk candidly about his aviation career including his time as an air training corps cadet flying gliders in South Australia, his RAAF ATC career including overseas service in the Sinai Desert, his time with Airservices Australia as an air traffic controller, ATC instructor, Manager Melbourne Centre, and Executive General Manager. He will talk about some of the tough decisions during his 6 years as CASA’s Executive Manager Operations, and will discuss how he inherited the search for MH370 and some of the other tragic accidents that he deployed to during his 5 years as Chief Commissioner at the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB).

He’ll talk about his love of flying and the 12 years he owned and flew his BD4 across the country and will outline the bumps in the road experienced as a result of his heart disease. Finally, he will pay tribute to John Duigan MC, who in 2012 was one of the first aviators to be inducted into the Australian Aviation Hall of Fame (AAHOF), an organisation of which Greg is currently Chair.
