Fatigue if applicable, is management induced.
Lack of training is management fault.
Sending into bad weather knowingly is management fault.
Bad maintenance is management's fault.
I know it is virgin territory and bosses are working on scripts to deal with it, but proving it as pilot error doesn't make management not guilty.
Roster may look legal on paper but when you consider all off-the-record things like wake up calls 3 hours before ... humanly impossible in the long run.
But we all know as long as these airlines offer cheaper fares and sleepy blue eyed FAs pax wouldn't care if the flight crew got any sleep or not. That is a fact.
Yep and sadly despite all that somehow "IF" it was pilot error something along the lines of "the pilots failed to report fatigued" or words similar would appear, let's hope if that is the case that, there is a little deeper digging that goes along the line of, " it is believed the reasons for this is ......" and a deep digging into the safety culture, rostering, previous fatigue reports, actions taken to improve things etc etc..... Sadly I doubt that will happen, fatigue only ever seems to get s glancing mention when in reality is likely one of THE major contributing factors.
