Narrative:
Flight plan called for a (sie camrn 2) STAR to jfk. ATC instructed us to cross camrn at 11000 ft 250 KTS. At 19000 ft, I told captain we would not make restr unless he used speed brake to increase rate of descent. He responded there would be no problem. I informed him I would tell ATC we were unable to comply with restr. ATC responded, 'give us the altitude first and then the airspeed.' we crossed camrn at 13000 ft 290 KTS. We were handed off to approach for a normal continuation of flight to jfk with no comments made to us by ZNY or approach control reference the camrn crossing. The captain's comment to me was that he did not like using the speed brake and thought he would be able to make the restr. In my opinion, the cause for incident was due to fatigue and clouded judgement on captain's part following an all night 11 hour flight from south america. TCASII was working and no other aircraft were involved.

Title: ALTDEV, XING RESTR NOT MET.
Narrative: FLT PLAN CALLED FOR A (SIE CAMRN 2) STAR TO JFK. ATC INSTRUCTED US TO CROSS CAMRN AT 11000 FT 250 KTS. AT 19000 FT, I TOLD CAPT WE WOULD NOT MAKE RESTR UNLESS HE USED SPD BRAKE TO INCREASE RATE OF DSCNT. HE RESPONDED THERE WOULD BE NO PROB. I INFORMED HIM I WOULD TELL ATC WE WERE UNABLE TO COMPLY WITH RESTR. ATC RESPONDED, 'GIVE US THE ALT FIRST AND THEN THE AIRSPD.' WE CROSSED CAMRN AT 13000 FT 290 KTS. WE WERE HANDED OFF TO APCH FOR A NORMAL CONTINUATION OF FLT TO JFK WITH NO COMMENTS MADE TO US BY ZNY OR APCH CTL REF THE CAMRN XING. THE CAPT'S COMMENT TO ME WAS THAT HE DID NOT LIKE USING THE SPD BRAKE AND THOUGHT HE WOULD BE ABLE TO MAKE THE RESTR. IN MY OPINION, THE CAUSE FOR INCIDENT WAS DUE TO FATIGUE AND CLOUDED JUDGEMENT ON CAPT'S PART FOLLOWING AN ALL NIGHT 11 HR FLT FROM SOUTH AMERICA. TCASII WAS WORKING AND NO OTHER ACFT WERE INVOLVED.
