@@jenniferlord8378What about it? Everyone’s is different. Mine is awake all night and start fading around 10 or 11am. I have been that way all my life, although I now have debilitating insomnia because of a drunk driver. Most of us in my family are like that, but we’re all musicians and are used to working, and thriving, at night. I used to do a 12am to 6am studio session shift. I liked it. My energy is high and my creativity is at a peak at that time. If I had to sleep and awaken at 6am to sing, it’d take until well into the afternoon for my body and voice to wake up. When you see a band on Good Morning America, they most likely have been awake all night. If they look lethargic and sleepy, 10-1 odds are they slept and tried to be awake at 6am, which is for us, an ungodly hour.

@LunnarisLP 2 дня назад

Totally agree. Sadly earplugs are the only way because other humans are simply incapable of showing some considertion for others. I'd already be happy if people where considerate when it is completely obvious, e.g. getting up for an old person, but even that seems like its no longer considered normal these days in many parts of the world...

@stephenbland7461 11 дней назад

As a former cabin crew, now retired, in my experience, on occasion, some crew didn’t exactly do the themselves any favours when on layovers down route. Treating layovers like holidays, partying until early hours then reporting for duty, clearly tired. On extreme occasions we had the cpt stand down crew before departure down route who were clearly unfit for duty, causing the remaining crew all sorts of problems. Some companies, for financial reasons, do push the boundaries of what is acceptable with crew rest, and often at odds with the unions, but also some crew don’t take their personal responsibilities seriously either. Just my experience.

@melissablick779 11 дней назад

The first officer in the right seat seems to be getting a lot of blame here. Her mistake not reprogramming the FMC is a relatively minor oversight compared to the captain's more serious mistakes. Also wonder if cockpit gradient played a role here, given she was new to this aircraft type, much younger and a woman. It can be hard to sleep on command for split shifts like this. There's often reasons why it might be difficult to fall asleep. She was likely on her phone because she couldn't sleep.

Wait... since they obviously aren't taxing to takeoff during loading why wasn't this already standard operating procedure? I'm not sure it would have made a difference in _this_ flight since the captain already had on paper rested enough even according to the new regulations for passenger flights (I guess he had that "in bed and can't get good sleep" moment that makes for a groggy next day) it would prevent pilot fatigue for a lot of their other crews.

I've worked some night shifts, and I've found that people on night shift can be loosely divided into two groups. those who treat their night shift like their daytime, and sleep while they are off shift, and those who continue their usual daytime activities while working at night. the latter do build a sleep debt and tend to have trouble staying awake on shift.

@cruisinguy6024 11 дней назад

When I worked night shift (6p to 6-) as a dispatcher there was a CLEAR difference between those two groups and it was very frustrating for those of us that actually slept during the day to not only have to pick up the slack but also look over the shoulders of the other group to catch mistakes.

@nlwilson4892 11 дней назад

I've done a lot of shifts, I'd pretty much agree with that. There is another factor though - it is best to be awake at the same time each day for a core 4 hour period and eat you main meal then. So if I'm doing a night shift, I'm getting off shift, going home, having breakfast and going straight to sleep. Then I wake up mid to late afternoon and have my main meal before going to work. What most people do is they go home, have their main meal, then stay awake for a few hours doing normal daytime activities before going to bed. Then they wake up shortly before they're due for work.

@kenbrown2808 11 дней назад

It's insane that as a truck driver I have to rest 10 hours a day. I should get a choice. It's just a 80,000 pound truck going 70 mph. Both of these pilots were DEI hires. The reason the the Capt didn't upgrade was because he liked bidding as a high senior FO vs a low seniority new Capt.

@rjsketch2305 11 дней назад

There was a fascinating video about elsewhere about from what height a fall is always fatal, and there's a lot of "it depends". In a bit about a fall from a terminal velocity speed, the video pointed out that one's own body doesn't decelerate all at once. The part of your body that impacts the ground (or object) stops, but the rest of your body is still traveling at full speed. Your body crushes itself under immense force when decelerating, basically. I imagine with plane crashes, it's probably more like splashing. If one can greatly slow down the deceleration the better one's odds.

@maxmeier532 11 дней назад

In cars, the idea of a crumple zone is to absorb the energy of an impact, hence the car will get totalled but ideally the passengers survive. In reverse this means, when the car looks intact after a high energy impact, it's likely that all impact energy went directly into the bodies of the passengers.

Neat to see this accident covered! In my dispatch recurrent training it came up, and I was surprised to see there was a recommendation for pilots to be included in dispatcher recurrent training, and vice versa. I knew full well that wasn't required, and was disappointed to find that the FAA had ignored this recommendation due to "other rulemaking priorities" for ten years, and then last year simply said that it has been a long time and no other planes have crashed like this, so clearly, the problem must have been resolved. This type of mentality is unsurprising but still disappointing to see from our regulators, especially when it comes to dispatch - we are often ignored and overlooked in our ability to plug holes in the Swiss Cheese.

@Faz99Master 11 дней назад

I’ve been in the transportation industry for decades (rail and road) and the issue of fatigue management remains of enormous consequence to the bottom line of airline/railroad/shipping corporations. I know of very few people who thrive in a work environment that necessitates staying awake when normal human beings are sleeping. That means an individual needs to rest or sleep on command. All this is easy to put on paper in the creation of new rules and regulations governing sleep and rest. In the end, as long as industries require human beings to stay awake while they should be sleeping, these tragedies will continue to occur.

@snowmonster42 10 дней назад

You're right, of course. Sleep remains a pretty mysterious physiological process - or at least, things are pretty clear as long as a person is either awake or asleep. It's the process of getting frome one state to the other that remains mysterious. Writing a policy and saying "this is reasonable and everybody will be fine" is sort of nuts. I have a personal theory that the fact that 80-90% of people can adjust to almost any unsafe expectation, at least for a little while, is what makes them so dangerous. The 10-20% see other people handling it and think they just need suck it up, and the 80-90% really aren't able to sustain their level of functioning. After a year or tow, or maybe 5-10 years they begin to have serious problems. Next thing you know it's 2024 and everyone is fat, tired, and socially isolated. But that's just my theory.

As a regular shift worker, I’ve developed a fairly robust system for managing my fatigue. The night before my first night shift (right now ironically) I will sit awake until 4am and sleep until midday. My shifts are 1800-0600 and I usually get home around 0630, I’ll go to bed and sleep until 1300. After my last night I’ll get up at 1000 and power through. It’s never let me down and in 9 years I’ve never called in fatigued. If you don’t manage your sleep properly on shifts, you’re a fool

@Julia-nl3gq 10 дней назад

It's not a case of ''being a fool'', it's that, first of all, not everyone finds a system that works for them. They try this, that, and the other thing, and none of it works. That's not being a fool, that's not being able to find something that works for you. Or, they may not be able to sleep whenever they want. Nice for you that you can sleep whenever you feel like it, but most of us can't; most have kids, responsibilities, etc. that mean that can't just sleep whenever they feel like it.

In Australian workplace law there is no incentive for not taking your entitled sick leave (mainly to prevent the spread of illness in the workplace) In fact it is more advantageous to take the sick leave even if you don't really need it. The fact that there was an incentive for airline pilots to ignore their fatigue for a bonus payment is madness.

And standard operating procedure in just about every industry in the USA. In some states the government mandates sick time for all "regular" employees, but even then it's unpaid. One way or another, your employer will make sure you never call in sick, either because your sick time is unpaid, or because you actually used the time you're entitled to under the law (and an employee asserting a right in this country is the quickest way for that employee to get an all-expenses-paid trip to the curb with all their stuff in a box. Sick days in the USA are considered socialist or lazy.

Thank you for the excellent review! Propper management of the FMS is crucial and needs both crewmembers involved, all changes should be verified by both. You said best, the FMS is not smart, it will do whatever the pilots tell it to do, including flying into the ground. Been flying freighters since 2001 and have adjusted my lifestyle as much as possible to the schedules. The accident duty looks very similar to most of my schedules until a few years ago, when my company decided to give us a complete day layover between segments (9pm through midnight), hotel stay, then back on the next day, takeoff at 3am back to base by 7am. This was greatly appreciated by all of us pilots. The importance of taking full advantage of rest periods cannot be over-emphasized. Don't know about UPS specifically, but those crew rest rooms at the airport are spartan at best, with just a bed, a nightstand, and a lamp. Kudos on the production!

I always enjoy your videos and enjoy learning new things about aviation. This video about fatigue relates to me also. I am a truck driver and also often have to fight against fatigue, especially during night time driving, but for me, I think, it's somewhat easier to deal with it because I can pull in into a truck stop, take a walk, breathe some fresh air etc. But you pilots have to deal with a lot more stuff. More systems on an airplane, where a push of a button can make a big difference, a misunderstanding between pilots/traffic control. In an emergency you have to take lots of decisions very quickly. And in cases of accidents the damage is way way bigger. You have way more responsibility on your shoulders and deserve lots of respect. Thank you for your work, and keep making this videos.

I have posted this comment before but think it is worth reiterating in the context of this video. I was due to fly a third night flight. I was in doubt about my fatigue status and fitness to fly. I had recently done a standard licence medical check with a Dr. Green(a UK CAA authorised Examiner), who had also researched pilot fatigue and published a book on the subject. I telephoned him for advice. He asked for my sleep pattern over 3 days. His immediate response was " You are not fit to fly and if your company want confirmation tell them to call me." I called Operations with this information. There was no call to Dr. Green. I was lucky to have his phone number. Maybe all pilots should have an equivalent number.

Fatigue is so dangerous..especially how it can sneak up. I work in IT and sometimes my schedule is sometimes pretty hectic. Once when I was coming off a pretty stressful week, Sunday to Sunday working, usually finishing about 10 every night, I made a turn with my van that I've made hundreds of times before. But this night, I totally misjudged my turn and went into a ditch. I remember sitting after and thinking that this hadn't just happened. Scary how simple it was. I rememeber thinking that I was good to go. A little tired yes. But in control. That was an eye opener.

I’m temporarily on disability, but my job can require similar stupid scheduling. Wake up to drive an hour to site 1 for an 0500 call, be there till 1400 (there was a food break in there…somewhere), have another call to make at 1800 with that hour drive back, maybe nap but more than likely it’s hard to get to napping soon enough. Grab snacks like protein bars since you won’t have an actual meal time again. Go to 1800 call, lasts till 0130. Home, flop in bed, remember you have to be up to leave by 0630 at the VERY latest (like, if you think nothing can possibly go wrong, L O L) to make an 0800 elsewhere the next day. This sort of stuff was the reality of our busy season, this or “you’re just going to be up and working so long you’ll cross the 24 hour mark before you leave”. Luckily we aren’t flying giant death machines, but we do work around heavy stuff that CAN fail if something is missed - HAS injured and killed groups of people at a time - and setting it all up is dangerous in its own right. Usually, we’re all coming off different amounts of sleep and schedules when we meet on a job site, so there’s always people that are perfectly sharp, and if you know you’re too tired to be working safely, say, on a ladder, there will be someone that can, which is nice compared to only having two people running the show like on a flight 😅 but there’s always people who try too hard to just work anyway, so, 🤷
