Charter operator GrandView Aviation has formally implemented a fatigue management program that cuts the duty day for its 50 pilots by two hours, to 12 hours. Its duty days had been pushing 14 hours—the maximum allowed under FAA regulations—partly in response to the overwhelming demand for charter flights GrandView has seen beginning earlier this summer.
