The relentless pursuit of profit and the reckless acceptance of extremely hazardous destinations, on one hand, and the assignment of inexperienced crews to demanding operations in Turkey, on the other, foreshadow tragic events. One such incident nearly occurred at Agri Airport about two weeks ago. By "inexperienced crews," I refer to captains who have not flown for extended periods or have limited experience outside the familiar confines of Central Europe, paired with young, inexperienced first officers who have only recently taken the right seat.
