There are always instructors who like (or don’t mind) the As and Es for their own reasons. The schedulers work to avoid Es in particular, but once the student load gets to a certain point, it’s gunna happen. it’s a good job, I enjoy it Denny |
Fleets are all different. I'd have to re read the rules, but I'm fairly certain that once they went from five periods to six that anyone can now do an E. The west coast carve out I believe is now for Fs.

Can sim periods be stacked 2 in one day or are you committed to 17 days?
on the 320 fleet, this year, it came down no more 2 teaching events in one day. you can Teach and turn to a seat fill. it stems from 1 or 2 guys stacking events, and the customer thought they were kinda getting a rush job (so to speak) |

It’s rare to do a double these days, unless it’s two seat fills, which is even more rare on most fleets. Double teaching events are not supposed to be scheduled. It’s a long... long day. A-C or B-D is a minimum 14 hour day plus commute time. The daily planner can do it, but it’s the exception. Plan on driving in 17 times for 17 days in the box. It’s a good deal, if you’re wired that way. It’s not for everybody. It’s a very tough job to commute to. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

Does a seat fill pay 5 hours too?

Serious question: By “stomach the sim” do you mean motion sickness or the general dread of being in those buildings?
I have reasons for asking. I can work through the latter. Not sure about the former when thinking day in, day out life.

I read 'stomach the sim' as doing sim work instead of flying. Watching others do something you love to do. If you made it through training, you can probably deal with the 'motion' as the instructor. YMMV
