Really though, if it is true we have instructors going in on days off to work for free, why would these horz mine working graveyard?
When I was a newhire we had sim 11pm-5am at Airbus in Miami. Is that time slot no longer allowed? Two or three Cuban coffees from Latin Cafe 2000 and I was good to go.
