Qantas 747 Captain fails to check. Disastrous results follow

I hope Qantas Captain Richard De Crespigny checks his 747 better than he checks his facts.
This is a email he sent without checking the facts. My corrections are in bold.

Hi Bryan

I am very sorry to hear of your mental illness. Certainly I think society does not fully understand the depth and severity of the problems associated with mental illness and for that I have sympathy with you.

However if you can understand the fact that people are generally kind, and that there are personal responsibilities then:

- you should have reported your illness to CASA who would have immediately revoked your licence
My illness was never given correctly to CASA by Qantas. They covered it up and did not pass the reports that would have had me grounded until CASA found out about them and asked Qantas to forward them. At this time I had left Qantas
- you should have reported yourself to be too sick to fly with your employer, which again is your responsibility under the CAOs and CARs.
I reported my illness to Qantas as soon as it happened. Qantas sent me to three psychiatrists, ignoring the ones that would have had me grounded and passing one that suited them to CASA
It's nice to find a person or company or "fairy godmother" to blame for your unfortunate predicament, but unfortunately in your logical arguments you failed to address why you failed to contact CASA or simply just declare yourself too sick to fly each sector (which is your legal obligation).
After a time when I couldn't go along with the Qantas doctors views anymore I removed myself from duty as on the next take off I would have shut down the engines
In actual fact on one occasion when I told the Captain of my illness he removed me from the flight deck. Qantas told him to reinstate me. They knew I was still ill but they illegally ignored it and sent this letter to CASA Qantas letter

I am confident employers have a person's interest at heart, and also the travellers. That your employer tried to accommodate your is a compliment to it. To criticise your employer whilst at the same time not following your legal obligations or informing CASA of your illness, is your decision, but don't blame the employer for your follies.
I had a loss of licence insurance which I could not collect because of Qantas illegally renewing my licence. Who else should I blame for not being able to collect it.
The presence of your website is a testimony to your continued anger and failure to understand the basic legal responsibilities of a person in charge of others. In other words, don't expect a person to think you are rational in these web pages, when you justify your past actions when you were probably insane. Perhaps you are probably still insane and so your web site will be viewed accordingly.
That is your view. It seems unusual that so many thousands of travelers etc would want to come to such a site as you describe
Your web site is poorly designed & laid out, and hopelessly presented. It is not a compliment to you or your cause. I would take the dignified approach and just delete the entire web site.
If you had been defrauded by your employer to stop you collecting an insurance, wouldn't you fight it? If the Qantas doctor had followed the recommendations by the two psychiatrists I would have been grounded and collected the insurance. Because of Qantas' Illegal, Immoral and Irresponsible actions I was not able to. Any company with an ounce of decency would rectify the situation.Perhaps I am not as clever as you at http://www.aeronaut.biz but at least my web sites are at the top. Are yours? For proof check Google for 747 pilot.

Bury the hatchet. It was 27 years ago.

I wish you the best for a continued mental health recovery. Read Dr. Phillips report. I will never fully recover
Regards
