Well put Rat 5.
Targeting the crap companies and certain regulators hasn't worked, and it won't work until it gets so much worse that the public forms their own opinions due to aircraft crashes in their own backyard. We don't want to let it go that far.
Many families have already held funerals for their loved ones that wouldn't have happened if the pilots had been well rested.
Why? So that airlines can have 300 pilots on salary instead of 325 and can therefore offer tickets at £55 as opposed to £59.
The scientists agree that it is a bad idea to have pilots doing return shifts starting at 7pm and ending with an approach at 6am. Pilots agree that it is a bad idea to have pilots doing return shifts starting at 7pm and ending with an approach at 6am. The accountants and Lawyers who run the regulators and the Airlines think it is a fine idea. The public doesn't even know it happens. Getting the public to hear what the scientists and pilots say is the only way to put pressure on the lawyers and accountants.
Trossie, I think you are nieve in your views.
