Human Factors
While approaching destination we were on a visual approach. As we approached the airport; we got distracted by Tower whom indicated a low altitude alert. As it turns out we were using the wrong altimeter setting. In conjunction; this distraction caused us to violate the 250 knots rule below 10;000 feet for an extended period of time. Bottom line is that we were tired and it had been a long day. This was the last leg of the day; a maintenance ferry. Complacency was the reason for these two issues; nothing more. After a long flight; one must be even more diligent. It is always the short flights where things happen quickly that the most errors seem to present themselves. In this case the short 10 minute flight things really piled up quickly.
CE680 First Officer reports a low altitude alert from ATC during a visual approach. An incorrect altimeter setting was being used and also resulted in a speed above 250 knots below 10;000 feet. The short ferry flight and fatigue were cited as factors.
