This brought to mind a similar incident in Hawaii over a decade ago .And as pilots issue dire fatigue warnings, last year the FAA reported 60 related pilot mishaps.

Hi BOH,
Speaking as a flight attendant with 45 yrs service – I’m confused about the ITA flight, as there are 3 pilots on all international commercial flights so while one was on rest break there would have been 2 pilots in flight deck… really usual (and I would believe illegal) to only have three working flight crew. Hmm? Maybe someone out there knows the answer ?
Aloha and thank you!
Hi Cheryl.
Thanks for posing that question.
Aloha.
Why is an Alaska Airline plane shown here when it was an ITA event? Shame on you. Don’t airlines have enough problems these days without false implications?
Doesn’t look like in Alaska plane to me!
Thanks for all you do…..
Hi Steve.
Thanks. That’s one version of the Go!Airlines jet we referenced in the article.
Aloha.
