Excellent points.
Those are the about the most realistic things that can happen and they would go a long way to addressing added safety in our profession.
My one question. I don't disagree with point #1, but would it not be difficult, in a logistic sense, especially in keeping with schedules for the next day...assuming the same crew is scheduled to fly the AM departure?
As for payscales, a magic wand may be what is needed....different discussion
