Short-haul multi-segment flight operations are conducted within Part 117 table limits for Flight Time and Flight Duty Period, yet there are few data available regarding the impact on sleep, workload, and performance in these operations. The Civil Aerospace Medical Institute (CAMI) has invested in the planning and execution of a study that will result in data characterizing the effects of short-haul multi-segment flight operations on cumulative sleep loss and pilot workload across trip pairings. Scientific researchers from CAMI, in collaboration with NASA Ames Research Center, are currently running an operational field study to examine the human factors and elements of pilot performance associated with short-haul multi-segment flight operations to better understand the impact of sleep disruption and workload across trip pairings. The first half of this presentation will provide a brief overview of current duty and rest requirements and identify gaps in current operational research data. The second half of the presentation will focus on results from a focus group study which developed the scope of the larger field study, followed by an overview of the current field study.
