Sounds like they love fatigue calls.

I bet the numbers say the vast majority of those flights will operate as scheduled and there will be very few fatigue calls

Weat coast bases asked to avoid that, so of course they still build them in other rotations.

The west coast bases are getting on my last good nerve. They can avoid all the late or early flying while everyone else picks it up. Flying to the west coast at 10pm is the same as them doing an early am show. Suck it up.

Guys, you should look at how many red eyes west coast bases start with before you start whining
