Have to say that I'd rather be flown by someone who'd had two glasses of wine the night before followed by 8 hours of quality sleep than by a fatigued pilot.

Some of your rostering schedules look very punishing to me.

And I do have experience of extreme fatigue, having grown up in the "old" NHS when 80 hour duty stints were common.
