Why would you fly for a second job? Say you ball up an aircraft instructing. Now you lost your ticket AND your Regional gig. Why risk your full time job doing a part time job? Go bartend or work a part time line gig somewhere instead.

Actually, it can be. I knew a TWA/AA pilot who was an oral surgeon first, airline pilot second. When at TWA, he said he would drop most trips and only fly a few days a month. Not sure how it worked out for him at AA.

Assuming your boss is cool with you putting their schedule second when it comes to coming in to the office and you working from a hotel room in DSM at 2330-0400 local! :cool: Don;t forgot you will be out of phone and email contact randomly for 30-100 hours a week...

No boss problem, but why out of phone and email contact randomly for 30-100 hours a week???
