Irish Pilot1990
You make a very good point. Rarely is it one single cause.
I know this was this F/O's 2nd week in his current post, but was this also he's 1st job commercial pilot post? I see he was out of Cabair.
Difficult situation if he was an in experienced F/O, He apparantly was rostered on this flight at the last minute, so possibly, new route, new aircraft type etc. Only takes a Captain having a bad day, bad wx, A N other problem and bingo!
