In this episode, we sit down with Darrell Myers, President of A.L.P.L. (Association Luxembourgeoise des Pilotes de Ligne), for a conversation that goes far beyond the usual discussions surrounding pilot fatigue. Rather than focusing solely on regulations, rest times, or scheduling practices, Darrell invites us to reflect on a more fundamental dimension of the profession.

He poses two essential questions:

• What is the true role and purpose of an airline pilot?
• Why are we in the cockpit to begin with?

With this philosophical lens, Darrell disrupts the traditional framing of fatigue in the cockpit and encourages aviation professionals to think more deeply about meaning, responsibility, and motivation.

A compelling and inspiring episode for anyone passionate about the human side of aviation.
