Quite agree with that, unfortunately it's not the people who do the twisting that end up getting bitten.

I second that. Fatigue is almost always a factor in every aircraft accident in which pilot error is a cause.

I'm not saying pilot error was the cause in this one, but authorities really need to get together and come up with realistic flight/duty times. Given the international nature of air transportation, it should be something that every country must follow.

I love how MK mentions that they are changing this rostering practice on accounts of "safety studies" done before the accidents. I would really like to see them reproduce the documents proving their so called "studies".
