There`s one fact in this whole scenario,which is for me the most unbelievable part in the crew-captain relation.
we have 2 pilots in todays standard with a lot of experience(doing away for a moment the AF defiences in training we all konw about) flying ong haul for years no city hoppers.they were clueless,desperate,no solutions to solve their problems ,both (?) eagerly awaiting the captains return for relief.
And when that moment arrived the cpt back n cp they both are not able to give a professional briefing,the last opportunity maybe to save their lifes.What di they expect from him ? guessing ?
Can somebody pls explain that ? This can`t be explained by their mental state only.
