i fail to see your point. an Emirates 777 went off a taxiway in Heathrow last week, SWA 737 overran the runway at MDW in an absolutely terrible snowstorm (everyone else diverted) 2 winters ago

Nothing spells recipe for disaster worse than fatigue and poor scheduling. Crews arent making these mistakes due to experience, its due to trying to turn an airplane in 28 minutes while trying to get all the information thats being shoved in your face (fuel, wx, other factors). it flat out sucks and everyone is prone to making those mistakes. some might argue the MOST experienced crews will make more of these types of mistakes because they can become more apathetic
