But if it's at home and more money is involved, somehow, magically, there is no fatigue.
Not pointing fingers here.
What's illegal on the road is somehow AOK with pilots when they're at home.
While I get your point, there’s a big difference. One pilot volunteered to be called. Turn on the slip, and that call at home does not happen. Just saying.
But you have a point.
