WS pilots complain of fatigue
http://bc.ctvnews.ca/schedules-leavi...says-1.2807803
There are concerns among WestJet pilots that their schedules are leaving them exhausted on the job, according to an internal report obtained by CTV News.
The report, which sums up the results of focus groups commissioned by the airline late last year, highlights frustration among many pilots, some of whom blame the issue on WestJet executives pushing to cut costs and increase efficiency.
“You’re not flying at the level you should be – and that’s the problem. There are no options,” one unnamed participant says in the document.
