Is fatigue fatal?
Experimental, your attitude is unprofessional and apathetic. Your Skywest koolaid posts disgust the professional pilot, and me. The FAA has been aware of fatigue for years now, but safer regulations have been lobbied out of Congress by people like you... who think the status quo is ok.
Until we kill 50 people.
Were the regulations good enough here? Was the status quo good enough that night in Buffalo?

you know I could always call in tomorrow at least I'm in a hotel on the
company's buck but we'll see. I'm pretty tough.

over me. this company treats me like crap so much.
