The FAA is investigating the pilot and co-pilot of the Go! airline that were flying from Honolulu to Hilo.  The pilots flew past the island and were unreachable by radio for a full 25 minutes.  After heading 15 miles out to sea the plane was turned around and landed safely. 

This is pretty scary.  We took an interisland flight while we were there and believe me they are very short flights.  You go up and you go down and it is over.  I can not image not only the pilot but the co-pilot as well falling asleep during such a short flight.  Thank God no one was hurt.
