DAL does not train 0200-0600. they use to have an E period where you went into the box at 2330-0330. Only authorized for west coast domiciled pilots and new hires. That time might be a little earlier now that the 20 min of dead time between sim periods is gone.
Just the facts
Yeah I was told midnight to 04:00. But hey 03:30 is close enough. Both qualify as all night in my book. The whole point of my PDR was that after about 24:00 effective learning pretty much comes to a halt and 02:00 debriefs are a total waste of time. This is a safety issue.
