hmmmm, this thread seems to have died pretty quickly after being moved. Never mind, it is a question I guess.
Rainbow, your test reults surprise me a bit as I guess they did you. It is a different situation though and I don't think anyone will tell you that the crews performance improves dramatically on a typical airline flight when they are fatigued (as I'm sure you'd agree).
If mandatory fatigue testing prior to starting a duty were normal practice today....what steps would have preceeded it? ie, would BALPA and the likes have had to lobby publicly for it and been supported by the public, who would vote on it? FAA? JAA?
