Most of the incidents I heard of were daytime incidents. That makes it easier in VMC conditions. From the crash results the FO's were flying it and the captain was in back taking his rest so the question is how qualified were they to command the plane. I know they were legal but could they handle all pitot/static info being lost in the dark? The captain might have been able to find a way to just fly GPS GS for a while to sort things out. Who knows? Not saying they did anything wrong just wondering if more experience might have saved them. Hope they find the black boxes to end the mystery.
