Part of the problem are some FRMS would not be legal for heavy vehicle drivers i.e. 15 hours of duty with no rest, or 30 minute breaks spent sitting in the aircraft.

The other factor is the potential of 17 hours being awake. On standby, you have two hours to report for a 15 hour duty. Or normal duty wake up an hour before, another hour to commute, especially the Blue Emu and It is acknowledged that the affect of 17 hours awake is similar to a BAC of .05. Operators don’t care
