Some comic relief
 
Bit of a blast from the past, seems like history repeating itself as the mighty EK slides further and further down this slippery slope!

Have a read, made me chuckle:

Emirates slams paper for pilot fatigue report | GulfNews.com

and the original report from the Herald Sun:

No Cookies | Herald Sun

To quote:


Pilots undergo objective scientifically accepted alertness and fatigue tests on ultra long range flights and testing of alertness during the minutes before landing and approach indicated no reduction of alertness
Ummmm, seriously!


Emirates reiterates its absolute commitment to safety. Emirates is a world leader in the management of pilot fatigue and alertness
Of course they are :ugh:


Emirates' pilots are accusing the company of putting profits ahead of the lives of passengers and crew
And its only gotten worse!


Emirates has a positive and open reporting culture that helps management understand safety issues before they become significant concerns
Yes yes World leaders in their field for sure :*



Move on 6 years and sift through these forums and you'll find folks predicting the worse outcome imaginable from this mess of a company. God forbid it were ever to happen, but if it did there is an electronic trial foreseeing it straight from those who sit at the coalface!

Perhaps the World's media should have another look at Emirates, with regards to the travelling public - forewarned is forearmed!
