Hearing JQ crew state they are unaware of Fatigue definitions, working groups, fatigue policy, reporting processes & procedures and specific crew & management training on the subject leads me to believe BB comments were lip service.
The F word comes up regularly in the CRM refreshers. Its my understanding that if fatigue is a concern then your proposed roster or recent roster history can be put in to some software that was originally developed for truck drivers and it is awarded a score. Never heard of anyones roster being changed due to that score.

I seem to remember hearing somewhere that they claim to use this software in the roster build process. Whether they do or not, I don't know.

Sometimes I get some shockers, but for the most part you can see a bit of thought goes in to giving you something liveable, previous JPA pilot reps selling out conditions for personal gain notwithstanding, but thats a whole 'nother thread.
