I agree 100% with the above post. Rest requirements are a freekin joke! 8 hours is bull$hit.
But yet we all seem to be okay with it and keep going back to work. If enough of us actually grew some balls (myself included) and called in fatigued, maybe the stupid a$$ faa would take that as a hint that there is a problem. In there eyes everything is okay because there have been no accidents and pilots seem to be okay with it.
I cannot tell you how many times I started to doze off in a cockpit because of the schedule and rest we had the night before..........ridiculous
