ShotOne.......

Exactly my point....In this case the accident would appear to be the result of a mistake by the crew...the cause behind the cause was almost certainly fatigue...but whatever the cause of this event, and there will be others, safety concerns of all aspects of aviation need to be upgraded to allow for developments in the industry.....that includes the airport environment as well as flight duty rosters....out of the two I believe that rostering concerns should be coming under the microsope rather more just now......only changes forced on the companies involved, whether operators of aircraft, airfields or whatever by the regulatory bodies will bring about the improvements....the commercial concerns themselves have to think of the bottom line...changes in regulations at least will ensure that all commercial concerns will be playing on a level field...ultimately the costs will be borne by the clients, and that is how it should be...........
