S2E42 - Tired? Stressed? You’re an Accident Waiting to Happen (Unless You Hear This First)

In Season 2 Episode 42 of Sky Commander Academy, we tackle the hidden threat that brings down more flights than tech failure ever will: fatigue and stress. For Advanced RPAS pilots, sharp decision-making and mental clarity aren’t optional — they’re mandatory for safety and compliance.

This isn’t just about getting rest — it’s about understanding how fatigue creeps in, how stress compromises your judgment, and what to do before it’s too late.

You’ll learn:

• How fatigue affects cognitive function, awareness, and reaction time during RPAS operations

• The difference between acute vs. chronic fatigue — and why both are dangerous

• Proven stress management techniques used by top aviators to stay sharp in high-pressure missions

• How to recognize the early signs of mental overload before they turn into errors

• What Transport Canada expects from pilots when it comes to fitness for duty

If you're serious about passing your Advanced RPAS Certificate exam — and even more serious about staying safe in real-world missions — this episode is a must-listen.
