On 8 June 2022, a Boeing 737 on a cargo flight from Sydney, Australia landed at Auckland, New Zealand with little fuel remaining in the wing tanks, and no fuel being fed to the engines from the centre tank.
The New Zealand Transport Accident Investigation Commission (TAIC) is investigating this occurrence. TAIC has requested assistance and the appointment of an accredited representative from the ATSB.
To facilitate this support and to provide the appropriate protections for the information, the ATSB appointed an accredited representative in accordance with paragraph 5.23 of the International Civil Aviation Organization Annex 13 and commenced an investigation under the Australian Transport Safety Investigation Act 2003.
The final report into this investigation was released by TAIC on 28 November 2024. The report is available for download on the TAIC website, www.taic.org.nz
