I've just been reading a statement issued on behalf of the partner of the co-pilot who clearly feels that the crew were in a situation that they should never have been in. She seems to imply that Manx2 were the employer, not Flightline the AOC holder and also seems to imply that Manx2 were responsible for the rostering that put an inexperienced Captain and First Officer together. Does Manx2 exert that level of operational control over the airlines that it uses?
