CDO's suck. Period. They are fatiguing all the way around. I found them to be more fatiguing than redeyes. I would bet that any of the so-called "experts" that did the "scientific" gobbly-gook studies have never done any themselves. Make them do a months worth and see what they say then. In addition, some people seem to be in la-la land as to what the people who do CDO'S are doing during the day, prior to showing up for work three or four days in a row.

Not to mention it is a ridiculous step backwards towards the work rules of any two-bit regional contract. Especially when you take the other tidbit in this loa regarding the move to far 117 limits vs our current contractual limits. Far limits with CDO's.

Up next: airport ready-reserve.
Spot on. Safety should NOT be for sale at any price.
