Easypeezy, whenever I get in that FD....I feel sleepy, a quick 20 minute power nap ensures I'm vaguely conscious for landing :}
And Onetrack...don't you mean ACDC...

The appropriate choices for background music when scheduling calls you from standby at 0200 would then be either "Highway to Hell" or "Wanted: Dead or Alive".

When you are out over the Bay of Bengal this summer at 3 in the morning, thirty miles right of track for weather, it can be "You shook me all night long".

This is the preferred anthem for the 330 night turn fleet. Rock n' roll with a South Asian flavour.

"Everybody. Singit. "

How about Simon and Garfunkel " The sounds of silence".
As you're boring a hole through the inky black on your way to another night turn, you can sing along.
" Hello darkness my old friend ..... I've come to speak with you again " :)
