'I know that human brain does not like to function at night initially, but after a while, it will adopt to the new the environment. but I can see where you are coming from.'

Just a friendly heads up, the whole body does not function as it should when forced to stay up all night, and does not become conditioned to it in time. In fact it gets worse in my opinion. I dont fly, but have worked 12 hour shifts at night for more of my 25 years at work than days, most of it in aviation.

As for what the night prowling cargo only carry, anything that can be carried leagally, from toilet rolls to radioactive, subject to UN numbers and the ticket to do so.

Would I leave it for the daylight SLF lark? No not unless forced to do so.
