fly now says read the report properly. I did. The report is not for attributing blame now is it.
There were two pilots at the controls. What difference could it possibly have made if he had the type rating stamped. Was that a factor. Me thinks not. The chap with the stamp was low houred. So what, lots of guys with zillions of hours have come to grief. Was that also a factor. Again me thinks not. Commercial pressures, is there any commercial operation without pressure, it is implicit, it is flying to earn revenues. That`s what everybody does, stress, strain, pressure, it all goes with the territory.
What about pilot incapacitation, clearly it is in the report. The most puzzling and important question must be why didn`t the other chap do something about it. Did he try and couldn`t intervene in time. We will never know. Am afraid this one is another to add to aviation`s cold cases. Can`t really say we have learned much from it.
