Narrative

THIS RPT IS A TIMELINE OF EVENTS LEADING TO MY 'FATIGUE CALL' WHILE ON RESERVE ON AUG/SUN/03. PREVIOUS WEEK; CAPT TRIP IN MCO TOTAL BLOCK TIME 20 HRS 24 MINS WHEN I ARRIVE HOME; CREW SCHEDULING CALLS TO ASSIGN ME A 2-DAY TRIP STARTING AUG/FRI/03; RPT TIME WAS XB00. ON AUG/FRI/03 THROUGH AUG/SUN/03; I HAVE SCHEDULED RESERVE; ON A PM. THE TRIP I WAS ASSIGNED ON AUG/FRI/03; FLEW 4 LEGS. WITH DELAYS WE TERMINATED AT FLL AT XM10; AND OUR DAILY BLOCK TIME WAS 6 HRS 47 MINS. THE NEXT DAY; AUG/SAT/03; I WAS SCHEDULED TO FLY 1 LEG FROM FLL TO BWI IN THE LATE AFTERNOON; DEPARTING THE HOTEL APPROX XG30. AT ABOUT XA15 THAT MORNING I WAS AWAKE BUT HAD NOT SHOWERED OR ANYTHING YET. I WAS CALLED BY CREW SCHEDULING TO SEE IF I CAN BE READY IN 30 MINS TO CATCH AN ARPT VAN TO DEADHEAD TO A WAITING FLT TO ISP; THEN DEADHEAD TO BWI WHICH WAS DELAYED WAITING FOR ME ALSO. NEXT I WOULD FLY FROM BWI TO BHM. I EXPLAINED THAT I HAD NOT SHOWERED OR ANYTHING YET AND I WOULD DO MY BEST. I MADE THE FLTS THAT WERE ASKED OF ME; WITHOUT EATING BREAKFAST; OR LUNCH. DURING OUR MECHANICAL DELAY IN BWI; I DID MANAGE TO QUICKLY CHOKE DOWN A SOGGY TUNA SANDWICH. WE FINALLY MANAGED TO ARRIVE IN BHM AT XK53; SECURING THE TERMINATING ACFT. MY BLOCK TIME FOR THIS DAY WAS 1 HR 53 MINS. I WAITED FOR THE HOTEL; WHICH WAS NOT EXPECTING ME; AND 'KNEW NOTHING ABOUT A PLT FROM OUR COMPANY OR FLT NUMBER.' UPON ARR AT THE HOTEL; I FIND IT BUSTLING WITH ACTIVITY AND LOUD CROWDS. IT SEEMS THAT THERE IS A CONCERT THERE OR NEXT DOOR AND THE HOTEL IS PACKED WITH CONCERT GOERS. I WAITED IN LINE TO CHK IN; AND POLITELY ASKED FOR A QUIET ROOM SINCE I HAVE BEEN ASSIGNED A DEADHEAD BACK TO BWI; VAN TIME AT XB30 ON AUG/SUN/03; THE LADY AT THE FRONT DESK SAID; 'JUST CALL US IF IT'S NOISY AND WE'LL SEND SECURITY.' I ARRIVE AT MY ROOM AND FIND IT IS OCCUPIED. I WENT BACK DOWNSTAIRS AND GOT ANOTHER ROOM. I FINALLY GOT TO MY ACTUAL ROOM AT XL45. I HAD NOT EATEN DINNER; AND I WAS TOO TIRED TO GET FOOD NOW. THE NIGHT WAS FILLED WITH THUMPING OF BASS SPEAKER SOUNDS; AND LOUD PEOPLE. I WAS AWAKENED SEVERAL TIMES ON THIS SHORT NIGHT; AND AT XA30 (MY ALARM TIME); I FELT REALLY WORN OUT. I CHKED IN FOR MY DEADHEAD FLT TO BWI; AND THEN CALLED SCHEDULING. I SPOKE TO A FEMALE CREW SCHEDULER AND ASKED IF I WOULD BE RELEASED UPON ARRIVING AT BWI BECAUSE I HAD ALREADY FLOWN 29 PLUS HRS IN THE LAST 5 DAYS. I MAY HAVE TOLD HER ABOUT THE NOISE AT THE HOTEL AND NOT GETTING ANY SLEEP; BUT CAN'T RECALL FOR SURE. I WAS TOLD THAT I WAS STILL GOOD FOR 54 MINS AND I AM ON RESERVE TODAY. I STATED THAT I WAS TOO TIRED AND WOULD NOT FLY TODAY.
