Undergraduate-Pilot-Training Duty Schedules and Aircrew Fatigue

During USAF undergraduate pilot training (UPT), instructors and students alternate weekly between an early-reporting (0530) and late-reporting (1030-1230) daily work schedule. A preliminary study was conducted to evaluate the effects of the alternating weekly schedule on pilot fatigue and sleep. Bot...

description During USAF undergraduate pilot training (UPT), instructors and students alternate weekly between an early-reporting (0530) and late-reporting (1030-1230) daily work schedule. A preliminary study was conducted to evaluate the effects of the alternating weekly schedule on pilot fatigue and sleep. Both student and instructor pilots reported a modest fatigue level when they began their early-morning duty days. Its only operational impact would be due to the fact that performance deterioration is more apt to occur in new, unmastered tasks, and UPT is a learning situation for the students. Beginning the early- week duty days a little later (0630-0700) may result in a notable reduction in early-morning pilot fatigue and sleepiness. At minimum, the findings provide empirical data for instructing the pilots on the importance of acquiring adequate sleep. (Author)
