[QUOTE="Faceplanted, post: 2157963, member: 56697"] U do know pilots fly more than one flight a day right? Like Louisville to philly, plane gets unloaded...re loaded, philly to Louisville, than the same thing for another trip or 2 depending on flight time and hours ect. Every time they land they have to re do the check lists. Takes time There are also chaser planes in case of overflow who are ready to go sitting on the Tarmac. 6 hours flight time can very easially be 10 hours on the clock That pilots that crashed in Birmingham crashed due to fatigue. Im pretty sure he was on the clock for a bunch of hours, more than passenger pilots are allowed to fly... That would be a huge issue for me if i was a ups pilot and had a family [/QUOTE]
