A teenage boy whose mother was killed in the Sea World helicopter collision has joined some other survivors in preparing personal injury lawsuits against the theme park's operator Village Roadshow.

Nicholas Tadros and his father Simon Tadros today joined with five other people affected by the tragedy to make applications to Brisbane District Court.

Outside court, Ciaran Ehrich, a lawyer representing the crash survivors, said his clients had to make claims within three years of the crash under Queensland's Personal Injuries Proceedings Act.

"We have taken the pre-emptive step to bring those applications so that we can protect our clients' interests and all entitlements," Ehrich said.

"The three years expires in January 2026 so claims have be commenced in court by that date."

Vanessa Tadros, a 36-year-old from Sydney, was killed along with three other people in one of Australia's worst air disasters when their Sea World joy flight chopper collided with another outside the Gold Coast theme park on January 2, 2023.

Just 25 seconds after take-off, the helicopter she was riding in entered free-fall for 40 metres and crashed on a sandbar.

Simon Tadros was forced to watch the disaster unfold from the shoreline and Nicholas would later have a leg amputated while being treated for his severe injuries.

Helicopter pilot Ashley Jenkinson, 40, was also killed along with British newlyweds Ronald and Diane Hughes – aged 65 and 67.

Nine passengers across both helicopters were injured.

Judge Ken Barlow today ordered the personal injury applications not proceed until a coroner has made findings into the crash.

The inquest earlier in December heard claims Jenkinson could have been affected by cocaine on the day of the crash.

There was evidence new helicopters with lower pilot visibility could have been rushed into service for the Christmas holidays, counsel assisting Ian Harvey said.

Coroner Carol Lee has adjourned the inquest to February to hear from further witnesses.

"There's disappointment that the inquest was adjourned but there's an understanding that it's not an easy process," Ehrich said.

"My clients would like (the inquest) done properly and if the parties need further time, so be it … to ensure the actual evidence comes out."

Sea World owner Village Roadshow Theme Parks sold its joy flights operation to Sea World Helicopters Pty Ltd in 2019.

The Tadros family and several other people have in the past two weeks filed personal injury claims against Sea World Helicopters Pty Ltd in the Queensland Supreme Court.

The inquest heard Village Roadshow still had some involvement in the helicopter operation through ticket sales, audits, and staff drug and alcohol testing.

The Tadros family and the other applicants also named Gold Coast City Council, who approved the Sea World helipad, as defendants in today's District Court applications

Jetpoint, a company that certified the helicopters as airworthy, and the Civil Aviation Safety Authority were also listed as defendants in the seven applications.

A review into the Optus Triple-Zero outage that was linked to two deaths in September has revealed widespread issues and an overall "lack of care" about mistakes that led to the incident.

The review examined the 14-hour failure that led to 605 people unable to connect to the emergency line in South Australia, Western Australia, the Northern Territory and part of NSW on September 18.

It found that Optus gave contractor, Nokia, incorrect instructions for a routine upgrade, which led to at least 10 crucial mistakes.

Optus and Nokia were found to have been unaware of the issue for 13 hours, as the call centre failed to escalate reports from five callers that Triple Zero calls were not working.

The report found there were internal gaps, including poor information flow that failed to acknowledge the severity of the outage and siloed structures.

"The lack of care and work discipline evident in all the mistakes that were the cause of this incident is more difficult to address," the report said.

The other major issue was that the Triple Zero calls did not latch onto other networks as they should have, which the report stated was "puzzling".

"This raises issues about how well the Triple Zero system is operating and whether it can be improved," the report said.

The Optus review handed down 21 recommendations, including encouraging staff to escalate issues outside their immediate group, considering whether Optus should contract its complex and essential services, and shifting the siloed nature of work.

At a meeting earlier this week, the board accepted all the recommendations and agreed to implement them quickly.

The board will also fine or fire the employees personally accountable for the failures.

Optus chairman John Arthur said the report was a "sobering read".

"We are deeply sorry for the 18 September outage that impacted Triple Zero services and the consequences for any Australians who were trying to reach emergency services," he said.

"We recognise the scale of the challenge and will act decisively to make the necessary changes to strengthen the business and rebuild trust."

Optus chief executive Stephen Rue said some of the key reforms needed were already under way, and the company will regularly report its progress.

"Our commitment is not just about compliance, it's about setting a new standard for our performance as a critical infrastructure provider of essential services and serving the community," he said.

"Australia deserves world-class emergency call services.

"We are working closely with government, regulators, and the wider telecommunications sector to enhance the reliability of the Triple Zero service for our customers."
