New Fatigue Rules Soon
 

Came across this article this morning. Promises, Promises

The Associated Press: PROMISES, PROMISES: FAA fatigue rules finally near

We don't appear to be any closer to a resolution this yet, do we.

im surprised the rules havent been leaked--- they've been finalized and im pretty sure the airlines know what the new rules are-- as prob does alpa national.
we can expect exactly what the article says.
prob a 6 leg limit at the regionals
up to 10 hours of flying to allow transcon round trips during normal circadian rythm hours.
and less during red eye hours

i havent a clue whats going to happen with commuters- if anything.

Flight and duty time nprm
 

FAA will announce new flight and duty regs tomorrow, followed by comment period.

That maybe good news, I won't hold my breath. Where did you find this info?

Fox news and the govt affairs chairman of our union spoke with FAA, will ba announced around 1 pm eastern. No idea what's in it

Something about 11hrs flight time per day

I'm fatigued from all this waiting(pause).........can't.......stay........awa ke.......to.....watch.

now CAL can make all their ewr to euro flights with just 2 pilots not just the one's blocked under 8 hours like now.

Exactly. UAL can do the same with many IAD flights. When ALPA suggested the 9 hour flight time/day I knew it had turned into a regional union.
