Charter pilots reported more hours of sleep in the previous 48 hours of duty than long- and short-haul airline pilots, according to a new study.

Charter pilots reported more hours of sleep in the previous 48 hours of duty than long- and short-haul airline pilots, according to a new study on commercial pilot fatigue by the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB). The study, based on responses from 625 commercial pilots, including 100 charter pilots, reported that “very few pilots from regional, charter, and aeromedical categories reported having less than five hours sleep in the preceding 24 hours.”
