kick the tires, individual incidents such as the one you listed do not necessarily reflect the training at the individual airline. It's very easy to dredge up incidents to smear the safety of an airline, these incidents should be learnt from rather than used for this purpose.
To prove my point:
EasyJet pilot was five times over legal alcohol limit | Business | The Guardian
BBC NEWS | UK | England | Merseyside | Aircraft makes emergency landing
and finally an actual report I could lay my hand on:
http://www.bfu.admin.ch/common/pdf/u1950_e.pdf
"The following factors played a part in the accident:
• shortcomings in crew resource management (CRM)"
I'm guessing it "Must of looked interesting looking ouit of the window for the pax, never mind the noise! So very close to an accident."!!!!
So kick the tires....would you report for duty 5 times over the limit, fly into a thunderstorm which was painting on your radar, or declare a fuel emergency and then allow management to cover up the incident to hide some sort of fuelling issue? Would all Easyjet pilots do this? Is this how you're trained at Easyjet? Thought not, unfortuante individual incidents that do not reflect the safety or training of the airline involved.

Cmon-PullUP on this one!!!!!
