Quite possibly the most ignorant post I've seen in a while. Sorry friend, but as stated earlier ASAP is a non-punitive safety tool to asses trends and improve safety. The ERC board is made up of the Union, the company, and the FAA, and I've yet to see anyone get reprimanded for a fatigue call here at XJT after they ASAP it. In fact, it's helping to educate the masses not just pairing construction and managing schedules, but on the science behind it all.
Do you guys even have ASAP at your carrier? Are you familiar with the amount of data, and the positive impact it has on safety?
A little education won't hurt before making statements about things you clearly aren't familiar with.
