Implementation of fatigue prediction models, such as the Sleep, Activity, Fatigue, and Task Effectiveness model, optimize scheduling by being able to predict pilot fatigue at any point in time. Although the mathematical model is limited by individual pilot differences it is the most accurate existing prediction because it takes into account ...
Fatigue can result in pilot error, slowed responses, missed opportunities, and incorrect responses to emergency situations. A November 2007 report by the National Transportation Safety Board indicates that air crew fatigue is a much larger, and more widespread, problem than previously reported. [ 15 ]
The same type of pilot errors and violations of standard operating procedure had been found in other accidents in which fatigue was not a factor. [3]: 171–173 To state that fatigue was a contributing factor, and thus part of the probable cause, would be inconsistent with the above finding and would, therefore, disrupt this flow of logic.
AIA Flight 808 was the first aviation accident where pilot fatigue was cited as a probable cause. [4] The NTSB issued a recommendation to the Federal Aviation Administration to review and update regulations on crew scheduling and duty time limits to incorporate the latest research into the effects of fatigue.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -A U.S. military Osprey aircraft crash off the coast of Japan in November that killed all eight crew members was caused by a failure in the gear box and the pilot's decision ...
1994 Fairchild Air Force Base B-52 crash, caused by flying the aircraft beyond its operational limits.Here the aircraft is seen in an unrecoverable bank, a split second before the crash.
The National Transportation Safety Board, which investigated the Nov. 13, 2021 crash on Beaver Island, said in a report released Thursday that the pilot lost control during landing and crashed 300 ...
