Fatigue - ✔✔Fatigue is the state of feeling tired, weary, or sleepy that results from prolonged mental or

physical work, extended periods of anxiety, exposure to harsh environments, or loss of sleep.


As with many other physiological problems, crewmembers might not be aware of fatigue until they make

serious errors. Sleep deprivation, disrupted diurnal (circadian) cycles, or life-event stress can produce

fatigue and concurrent performance reduction. Boring or monotonous tasks can increase fatigue.


Exogenous Factors: Restrictions - ✔✔Authorized to self medicate with drugs approved by APL

(Aeromedical Policy Letters) for flying duties, Anesthesia (Local), Alcohol, Immunizations: 12 hours,

Blood: 200cc+/- 72 hrs, Decompression / Hyperbaric Chamber: 24 hrs

Chronic Fatigue - ✔✔Chronic fatigue is much more serious than acute fatigue, occurs over a longer

period, and is typically the result of inadequate recovery from successive periods of acute fatigue. It

might take several weeks of rest to eliminate chronic fatigue. Chronic fatigue is characterized by some or

all of the following characteristics: Insomnia, Depressed mood, Irritability, weight loss, Poor judgement,
