So it was a great surprise to us when subsequently we read that this particular person was claiming that she had been poisoned by burnt hydraulic fumes, as she listed in her application to the inquiry, because, never in the period from 8 September 1994 up until her payout on 28 February 1996, was the matter of air quality raised.71
2.75 In her submission this pilot claimed to have been forced to retire prematurely from flying due to an “unexplained medical condition now linked with fumes on the BAe”. The former pilot also claimed to have suffered deteriorating health since being exposed to “burnt hydraulic oil” fumes while crewing the BAe 146.72
2.76 The Committee finally notes that, in her submission, the pilot stated that she and her doctor had been unable to fully appreciate the source of the health condition she suffered until becoming aware through the media of the Committee’s inquiry.73
Exemptions for flight crew not to work on BAe 146 aircraft
2.77 Ansett told the inquiry it had made efforts to meet the concerns of its staff in relation to the BAe 146:
When collection and analysis of data was being completed, Ansett granted exemptions for crew crewing the BAe 146 to a number of flight attendants in recognition of their concerns for their health. There are currently 119 flight attendants who have been granted such an exemption, 40 of whom are pregnant and 11 of whom are attempting to conceive. While no evidence suggested BAe 146 cabin air presented a risk to them, or their unborn children, exemptions were granted in recognition of their concerns.
Of those who have been granted an exemption, medical certificates have been accepted without challenge. … On no occasion has an issuing doctor sought any information from Ansett Australia before providing a certificate attesting to a flight attendant’s inability to crew a BAe 146. In the light of the documented evidence verifying that there are no long-term health effects associated with the BAe 146 cabin air, a graduated fully supported return to work program is now being prepared. 74

2.78 In a letter to the Committee dated 11 February 2000 Captain Jensen advised that:
Ansett Australia is fully satisfied that there are no long-term health effects associated with BAel46 cabin air. Aircraft modifications have now improved the working environment to such an extent that there should no longer be any distinction drawn between the BAel46 and other aircraft types in terms of crewing.
…. it is Ansett's intention to cease its special exemptions for BAel46 flight crews and to commence a graduated and fully supported return to work program for staff currently exempted from flying on the BAel46 aircraft. Of course, all occupational, medical and workplace health and safety support, -including access to workers' compensation schemes, will continue unchanged.75
