I feel sorry for this crew.
You do a million things right. So what.
You drop a bollock once- instant arsehole.
So, you go from hero to zero in one nanosecond and they just look at you, a-shaking their heads. How could you? A man of your experience?
To the investigators I just say this.
Fly the f*ckers yourself and lets see how long before YOU f&ck up!
Been there, done that and moved on. Management just like to cover there arses by kicking pilots out on their arse.
Proper training both on the ground and in the sim and good rostering are key to stoping incidents like this. When I joined my last company there were 5.6 first officers per aircraft, when I "left" there were 3.4! Same schedule being flown too!
Eventually something has to give and unfortunately it's most likely the crew.
