Fatigue is a major safety concern in aviation. After watching the above video, discuss one or more of the following questions:

  • What mitigating steps (if any) are effective in reducing the risks associated with a person who is fatigued?
  • What cost benefits could be presented as incentive for airlines to be more proactive about protecting pilots from fatigue?
  • What steps can or should be taken to combat fatigue?
  • How effective will the new FAR part 117 rules be in reducing pilot fatigue?
  • Should Part 121 rest and duty regulations still be allowed for Cargo Pilots?
  • What do you think is a tolerable rest period? 

These are suggested discussion points. You do not have to answer or discuss all of these.
