Microsleep

I am reminded of a cargo DC8 landing at Guantanamo many years ago...a fatigued crew fell asleep for an instant of time while turning base to final...they crashed...I think they all lived

perhaps for one second, this crew fell asleep...MICROSLEEP they call it, and when they awoke their minds were not in flying mode.
