Really? You're weak. When you flew so many sectors a day, how many time zones did you cross?

You're flat white is ready at Costa.

Fatigue is a major issue at a company when that company uses legal LIMITS as guidelines.

As far as management and reporters are concerned... My suggestion is that our managers fly our rosters and the reporters sit in the jump seat.

"Oh hey, it's called a shared rest day", or, "I know we just got off a 16hr flight 2 days ago but we are going to do a 12hr duty day in the middle of the night because we can take advantage of longer duty rules"

Or the BEST: "hey, it's legal".

Good luck to all.
All the management that are on alert, all the reporters searching for a scoop, and all the pilot professionals just trying to do our job to the best of our abilities.
