Getting up at 0430 is something "special" for you?
Then how about the doctors working 24 hours shifts, the bakers getting up at 0200 to make your bread, the engineers preparing your aircraft starting at 0300?
Flying IFR is one of the simplest things in aviation (assuming you are IFR-rated, of course)....
But itīs not about the "difficulties" here...its about the pilots taking away the big bucks, then suddenly complaining when that comes to an end......
What do they actually want to achieve?
The companies have already lost money-thatīs why they got rid of "expenses" (aka pilots)...
Not flying means they will not make money-or even have to pay compensation.....aka losing more money...anyone not understanding this should not be in a cockpit....so be careful what you guys wish for......there are always pilots waiting to get that job for less money...
