Interesting article in Australian Aviation
https://australianaviation.com.au/2018/07/human-factor-understanding-fatigue/
The practice of starting a night shift with little or no sleep in the preceding 24 hour period has been happening for as long as I can remember. And even after all the human factors research, mandatory human factors training, fatigue modelling tools, and introduction of fatigue risk management systems, the ATSB's initial finding still ended up blaming the captain and it requires a magazine article to point out that the industry still does what it does and something needs to be changed. How do we fix a culture that is clearly broken?
