70 reports in 450,000 flights - wonder what Ryanair had for same amount. Then throw them up against an Airline such as Easyjet who has an FRMS which is up there at the front
The problem at Easyjet, is that thousands of fatigue reports have been submitted and yet nothing has been done about the issues contained in these reports. However, at least you can report fatigued for a duty and then blow off steam by submitting the required report without being invited to a serious grilling and bullying exercise at head office. This is probably one of the reasons why there is not a fatigue issue in Harp land.
As for this particular sad accident, it has fatigue written all over it. Their rosters were generally known to be punishing, they had already been operating for 7 hours in very difficult flying conditions, they had already flown a go around in ice and windshear which the Captain was subsequently fretting about and it was about 4 in the morning for their body clocks. No wonder the Captain ran out of cognitive capacity.
