Tyreplug - Are you insane ? the Captain had 3000hrs total, 1500 on type and was 44 years old. I don't consider that alot of experience to be honest, and the age against hours indicates a 'career changer'.

I think low experience combined with a demanding crappy TP, multi sector hard fatiguing days are the main reasons the AAIB bulletin should be renamed 'Flybe monthly'.

Arctic , I know who you mean, but the FOs may be fresh off the money making schemes but the Capts have more than 3000 hrs ?...... Actually I don't know if you are talking about the low cost harp boys.

Calm down, I know this sort of thing happens to anyone, it's just it all seems to happen to Flybe more....
