WFAA did a story on pilot fatigue in the regional airlines. Anyone happen to catch it?

Well, that article sure made it sound dramatic. But yes, I've nodded off for a few seconds once in a while. I believe the nature of the job will cause that to happen regardless of how much sleep one gets. That's why there are two pilots- well, one of many, many reasons, I'd say.
