WRONG RUNWAY AND FATIGUE

Its called creative rostering!! Pilots don't need sleep. When you are at your most fatigued and feeling the effects of sleep deprivation, thats when something is going to bite you in the bum and it needs more than a shot of adrenalin into the bloodstream at 3 or 4am to deal with the unplanned situation/emergency/that presents itself, or down to minimas with a new F/O. CAP 371 is used by some crewing depts as a bible for rostering.
Directors of airlines or their major shareholders should be invited to spend a few nights on the jump seat to experience the fatigue factor. As for landing on the wrong runway or even the wrong airfield, thats small beer compared with totalling the aircraft, the passengers and of course loosing your own life

Fangio:

The BIA 1-11 was not being flown by two training captain. It was being flown by a training captain and a trainee captain.

The latter was a mate of mine and he kept telling the training captain that he was lined up the wrong bit of concrete but the training captain simply would not listen!

That's quite all right; I know my mate kept his job but I don't know about the other guy.
