I know right? (By the way is that phrase on it's way out yet?). ...anyway, kind of sad you have to spell this out on AIRLINE PILOT cental. I agree 100 percent. Days off have a different meaning to pilots living in hotels 4 nights a week.
Now if you could log a few hours in a 172 during your 18 hour layover in SDF that might be cool. At home, no freakin way!
