Amid Capitol Hill rumors that the new fatigue rule may include an exception for all-cargo airline operations, Capt. Lee Moak, president of the Air Line Pilots Association, Int’l, is urging all ALPA pilots to make their voices heard by using the Association’s Call to Action program. “Every ALPA pilot must stand up and voice your objection to anything less than One Level of Safety for all pilots,” he said.
Moak wrote to U.S. President Barack Obama today, stressing, “As a pilot, I can attest to the fact that fatigue does not discriminate based on the color of the airplane or the type of operation being flown—we are all human and fatigue impacts us all the same. One segment of our industry should not be treated differently than any other. To do so, compromises the safety of the entire system.”

Specifically, the ALPA president is insisting that the White House release pilot flight-time/duty-time rules and rest requirements, as originally envisioned by Congress, the Aviation Rulemaking Committee, and the FAA, which encompass all segments of the commercial airline industry.

Click here to tell President Obama we want “One Level of Safety for all airline pilots” and that we’ve waited long enough for a practical, science-based fatigue rule!

Have you actually read the NPRM?
Certain segments of the industry need the rules re-written ie. Supplemental.

If you are not an ALPA member, you can go to the capa website and send in a support letter/email....WITHOUT having to be a member of capa.
