Continuous flying operations, in which crews sleep aboard the aircraft instead of sleeping at route stations, provide an operational capability independent of positioned crews. Such missions may lead to sleep difficulties and it is concluded from two missions operated by Royal Air Force Air Support Command that the optimum duration is 48 hours. In the case of a fast strategic transport aircraft this provides a world-wide capability. (Author)
