Surely this cannot be the only rare occurrence a pilot is feeling sleepy in what seems like a dull environment. White noise, little change in the view outside, awkward wake-up hours, no one to talk to, etc.
So how is that supposed to work? I feel sleepy in my standard office work at times. But me falling asleep is not gonna kill hundreds of people.
How come it all works without ideas like dead man's switch from the trains?
