Dear Airservices Australia,

On 4 July at approximately 21:22, Flight QF997 from Sydney breached the NAP. I seek a complete transcript of the communication between Hobart ATC and the pilot of QF997. I want to understand why Flight QF997 used the Runway 30 RNP-AR short track when it should have used the Runway 30 RNAV longer track. The excuse that QF997 followed the short track for "operational reasons" without specifying the reason is unacceptable.

Yours faithfully,

Andrew Terhorst
