Thanks for speaking out on this issue. This profession is overdue for some serious change with respect to all of us flying around zombiefied for the sake of some operations joe/jody sitting behind their desk from 9-5. I spent years waking up in hotel rooms after an 18 hour day wondering what city I was in just because the fed's really did not care to see the pilots point of view, but rather only the company man's point of view. In the U.S. that all came to an end with the cologan crash last year, the fed's and congress finally had to respond. After the fact of course.
