I am not scared of crashing, on the way to hotel yes, but not flying. I it did happen i know were i am going and it would be fast. Pilots get exhausted and as do fA's . 15 hr duty days meant to be the exception but since we only get paid for half that time and carriers care less about us it has become the norm. Fatigue is a huge concern that is why colgan crashed and management intimidates anyone esp pilots that try to call in fatigued or anyone crew that does. By the end of the 2nd the entire crew is so tired it is insanity.
