And as long as Joe Public gets cheap airfare and the statistics ain't to bad he's a happy camper
Unfortunately, this is how it works.
NOT TRUE! Joe Public doesnīt have the faintest idea about fatigue being a serious and common problem in aviation. Joe Public normally doesnīt peruse forums like pprune but gets his information from the media where heīs happy to read that the recent incident/ accident was "just" a pilotīs error.

Joe Public believes that there are rules and regulations enough to make his life as slf safe.

... itīs about the professional pilots to act and inform and let Joe know whatīs behind the pilotīs error and make him aware of the coherences.
