VC has a great point. I used to go in early for the STBY's as well and get a good four or five hours of sleep before they called me. I always prefer a trip to a stby when the phone rings in the middle of the night. Had one last month where the phone rang at midnight for a STBY, got there at 2, tried to fall asleep, then launched at 4am to a three leg out and back returned about 10:30. I was very tired by the last leg. Under the old system I would have had a good six hours of sleep, and would have been much more alert. I have been there for the fatigue call, if you really believe that is a no harm no foul thing, I got a bridge for sale you might be interested in. There will be additional paperwork and a phone call or two, but that is better than bending metal.
