Over 70% pilots fell asleep inside cockpit in last one month: Survey

A survey of 7,200 pilots across 32 countries found that 77% fell asleep in cockpit at least once in last month, while three in four experienced "microsleeps", or brief episodes of sleep lasting a few seconds. Further, 24.2% of pilots who felt unfit to fly due to fatigue still flew without reporting it, fearing they would be seen as irresponsible.
