This has been dicussed earlier here. But it is worthwhile talking about again.
What would the ideal schedule be for a HEMS pilot(US)? I know, everyone has his or her favorite schedule ( 3 days/4 nights or 7 days/7 off/7 nights etc.).There is a lot of chatter going on nowadays in the NTSB and the FAA over fatigue in airline pilots. I wonder if it is time to draw somebody's attention to fatigue issues in our industry?
This has been discussed on other forums (notably JH).I am hoping this discussion will be more civilized and possibly more scientific and thought provoking.
