So the FAA can start to compile data and track it.

If the powers that be were as concerned with the FO's recordings of being sick as they were with the overall state of the accident, it may come to that, but I doubt it.

See above. Does the FAA get irreg reports at your airline?

Don't know, a buddy of mine that flew for Airnet got fired for it. Only had to talk to the chief pilot twice in his stint there. BOTH times were over a fatigue issue, the second time was the last, sadly.

When you say "we" do you mean the CA pretty much did everything? And why not tell them you're fatigued? Put it on the radar and let them know there is an issue.
