Outcry from Mesa Pilots in Hawaii

They say it happens more than you realize. Pilots tell us they’re so exhausted they fall asleep at the controls. Now, there’s more proof and more controversy.

While federal investigators haven’t determined if that was the case, people in the airline industry nationwide are talking about it and telling us about it.

KGMB9’s Stacy Loe first broke the story and continues her investigation.

Since our story aired, I’ve received more than 50 e-mails from pilots across the country.

Many claim to be current or former Mesa airlines employees who say this is a problem that needs to be addressed. Some of their claims are chilling. They agreed to go on the record, if we did not use their names.
