Fed: Senate to investigate latest fumes leak on Ansett aircr = 2

The Australian Federation of Air Pilots says it wants an independent assessment of
the BAE-146's safety.

Executive director TERRY O'CONNELL has told ABC radio that some pilots have been grounded
medically as a result of the fumes.

Mr O'CONNELL says the Senate inquiry has been doing a thorough job of investigating
the problem, and says the grounding of the BAE-146 probably won't be neccessary.
