[00:01.32]The Federal Aviation Administration, or FAA, [00:05.61]the government agency that regulates civil aviation in the United States, [00:10.45]announced new rules this month to combat pilot fatigue. [00:14.76]The new guidelines, which will go into effect in two years, [00:18.98]call for reducing the number of pilots' on-duty hours and giving them a 10-hour rest period between shifts, [00:26.31]so they can get at least 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep. [00:30.81]The new rules apply to only pilots of passenger airlines. [00:35.06]FAA determined that including pilots who fly cargo planes [00:40.89]a large segment of the aviation industry would add too much to the cost of implementing the changes. [00:47.45]But the Independent Pilots Association has filed a lawsuit asking the government to set one level of safety for all pilots.
