sorry but why is this a fatigue issue??
the captain says he only had 3.5 hrs sleep in last 24 (Margaret Thatcher as Brirish PM allegedly had around 4.0 per night, some people function like that), he said he had almost 100 hours in last month, he said the ML-Dubai flight was a long and tiring flight etc etc....
but where did he EVER, EVER say the flight patterns and hours per month and associated time changes/varied sleep patterns as LEGALLY rostered by his employer created a fatigue issue for ALL the pilots in his company??
He NEVER does, nor does he EVER state an acceptance that he screwed up as PIC - "it's all just a mystery how this happened."
Sorry but NO - it's bloody well not!
And for any other PIC's who are happy to take the dough but don't understand what responsibility is all about - do aviation a favour and f**k off and become a public servant.
Rant Over!
