Pros/Cons for HAA, I miss some of it (2004-2018)

I remember a pilot with 1500 plus night hours from Southern Cali quit during training in MN because it was too dark
I have heard of pilots that struggled in training offered a job with Blue Hawaiian. I would imagine they could reapply at AMC at some point.

I flew in Northern Minnesota and it is basically IFR when flying at night. No horizon, no lights, no celestial illumination, no nothing. Just blackness.
