I’ll agree though any Hawaii DEN all nighter is a ball buster. These are the amongst most fatiguing trips you can fly at UAL.
After getting surplussed off the left seat of the bus in 2010, I spent 5 wonderful years on reserve in DEN on the right seat of the 757. Not only did I do these trips on an almost constant back to back basis, they were a 3 day that paid 11 hours.
Good times.
But the best of the best was the time that I got docked for a day when I didn’t answer my phone in time after getting home from a LIH DEN. The screw desk called at 11:00 that morning, I had my ringer off because you know, sleep.
Don’t fly fatigued! And don’t get more than 3 hours of sleep!
Good times!
That’s about as much fun as the old freight dog days. Continuous rest until the phone rang at 10:00 PM to start your multiple leg, horrible weather, 16 hour duty day on a plane held together with MEL stickers. Good times.
