Next time you are on an aircraft ask the flight crew if this is their 60th hour in a week or their 190th in 4 weeks.

Perhaps its their 5th 0330l wake up for a 6 sector day in a row.All perfectly legal in CAA regulated world, ergo must be safe .cos "dem is the roolz".

The sooner a "tired o meter" is invented the better, then we can sack all of the pilots turning up for work slightly fatigued because the Ops Manual( The Law) says you're not to be at work when fatigued.

Dont get me wrong,entirely agree one should NEVER report under the influence of alcohol,however dont let the bigger issues get overlooked by your holier than thou attitude to professional flightcrew.
