See here for the EASA scientific research report


(it is v good if not quite perfect) but which EASA then conveniently ignored when writing their proposed FTL for all EU states. The UK's CAP 371 is a leap ahead of these proposals and UK politicians, as well as BALPA and ECA, are fighting the EU proposals - not sure what the CAA are doing but surely they would be irresponsible to go back against their own publications - also based on over 40 years of scientific study and research.
However, greater press attention on this required in all EU states whose airline safety will undoubteldy be threatened by these 'positively dangerous' EU FTL proposals. It is good to hear that other countries are equally worried.

BALPA's 'wake up' pressure-group website is here
