Dutch 250, I dont know that "getting paid a lot of money to do the job properly" would have made a difference in this case, the crew had it stacked against them on the morning, a routine flight to CAG with a jepp trip kit that for reasons as yet to be clarified, did not include the newly reinstated straight in ILS X RW32 , all the plates in the trip kit pointed to the approach 32 with a side step to the taxiway, as the crew had been doing for the last year, ATC was no help on the morning in question, no atis, an airport that on a good day you can only be sure what approach you will land from when on short finals, no company operations back up, the only clue was the one line notam buried in the middle of 3 pages of Italian notams.
As they say|"if you line up all the holes in the swiss cheese................"

In a perfect world sure they should see the the notam, in the real world...
