Sorry, haven't even met Capt. America or wouldn't know him if I tripped over him. But I guess I should have read the forum rules first and realize there is no positive posting allowed.
I guess fatigue can be a personal issue. If you're tired-you're tired. Simple as that. And good for the guys that took the time off. What I am comparing EK in the fatigue factor is what I have been doing for the past 10 years-and this type of flying is much easier and less fatiguing-for me. Twenty four hour layovers-nice. And how nice that there is a medical department that backs the pilot in the fatigue area. A medical department that is more than window dressing. A medical department? What's that? So thank you for making my point, that EK does have some very positive aspects and it isn't all negative. Isn't that what this thread was about in the first place?
I am not arguing that there are not fatigue issues at EK, but to take at face value what is being touted here as the gospel that everyone is dragging ass around the CBC is not the whole story. So I guess I better get some rest or you will see me at the clinic.
