The carrier I fly for (much larger than Wizz) has consistently said that if you feel too fatigued to fly safely then don't fly at all.

Oh dear, this news has set the Boeing haters scrambling.

And you would know this how?

Easy for you to say, blueash. When I was a young FO, we landed a Metroliner with the right side gear retracted. The captain kept it on the runway, but barely. I hated that old bitch from day one and most especially after that event. It was hateful to fly when everything was working.

And damned if I didn't do the same thing. Thanks speech-to-text algorithm. 😝

It would behoove you, Mr. Chiasson, if you intend to take someone two task over their use of language at least to spell the words correctly. A snarky riposte does not an excuse make.

I once piloted a Ford Trimotor, does that count?

I have only 20 years, most in the 737 but a good deal of that time has been flying in Canada, Alaska, and Northern Europe. I know that taxiing on ramps covered with snow and ice, with high wind and more snow blowing through the air is not easy. Certainly not easy enough to warrant a toss-off comment like Bonnie's. Let's wait on the results of the investigation before we begin pontificating about excuses.
