Dear friends, Does AIRBUS have a "Pilot Awake - Pilot Response" Monitor ? Ive heard on the long range aircrafts that if the FMCS hasn't been fiddled with for over an hour - it flashes a status or caution message - to be canceled by the "awake" flight crew ..
Thank in advance

B767 with Pegasus FMC has a Crew Alertness Monitor. It monitors the radios, FMC, CDU's etc. After a predetermined time after the last control activation an EICAS message will display "PILOT RESPONSE" caution message. Shortly after that if no inputs are detected it will Give an aural and "PILOT RESPONSE" warning.
