Not quite unrelated question. Assume this happens to you as PIC/PF. Now assume you are in the LH seat, you have an hour to take off to cool brakes - how good is your psyche? I may assume you are quite well, disaster averted, not your fault. Now - how about the Egypt Air guy? He probably knows he screwed up majorly, has to call upon arrival etc - but still has to do a 8h or so flight. Is he mentally fit to do that? Are there any rules for that?
