Permafrost_ATPL,
OK, was shooting from the hip. No offence intended.
I meant to refer to the sort of ultra loco which fails to monitor their crews properly.
Airlines, including majors, which know that they have crew commuting to work over long distances really do need to monitor the situation and, if found necessary, demand that crew live within a reasonable distance from base.

I recollect being shown around (I think) an AN124 at a European airport. The flying spanner asked me to keep quiet because the crewmembers were asleep in bunks on the upper deck.
