Posted by Charles G on Thu Mar 26 19:50:26 2015, in response to Re: Locking the Barn Door After... (Germanwings Co-Pilot Appears To Have Crashed Plane Deliberately), posted by Dave on Thu Mar 26 19:30:49 2015. Read and learn my friend, read and learn.Toronto Star Story -- excerpt -- "In its Canadian Aviation Regulations, Transport Canada permits pilots to take mid-flight naps, or “controlled rest” in official parlance. But they cannot be longer than 40 minutes in order to minimize sleep inertia caused by longer rests." and more here... CBC Story -- excerpt "...the TSB report says the first officer, who had just woken up from a nap in the cockpit, initially mistook the planet Venus for a U.S. air force C-17 military plane in the vicinity, and later decreased altitude abruptly after being "confused" and believing they were on an "imminent collision course" with another aircraft." |
