I'm not 50% correct on that.
While the regulator and the company are equally duplicitous in your scandalous crewing, take a stab at who'll wear 100% of the blame should an incident happen. CASA will say the pilots were undoubtedly fatigued, although they failed to stand them selves down. JQ will say we have a robust culture of fatigue management in place, or some other obfuscating alternative to shoot the blame right to the pilots involved. Summarily dismissed under Just Culture.
You guys are playing Russian Roullete with your careers and your passengers lives.
No you are not 50% wrong about that, although calling them 'gutless whimps' might not be the best way to go as you will find the same 90-95% in any company under similar circumstances. It's called human nature, and the minority who have the balls to stand up know this better than anyone!
