MINT_MARQ Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 08/17/2009 2:31 pm Congrats NOVILLERO And thanks for the contest Moe, I think I was also on the right track, I thought I was grabbing a Nigerian location with my Niger guess. My interepretion of the Hints: Not a vacation destination, made me think humanitarian trip. Alot of languages, made me think Africa since there are more than 1000 languages spoken there. and the head east song was in the movie Sahara and when I went on the movie website, the had a map with Nigeria at the bottom. My last guess was Nambia, but decided to stay with that guess with the hopes everyone else would keep moving east. It was a lot of fun. Report this Post to the Staff

Everybody's working, just at different times. Just a FAA requirement for what's called ULF (Ultra-Long Flying) (more than 12 hour flights). A 2 person crew can only legally fly up to 8 hours flying time in a 24 hour period. With a Relief Pilot, that can be stretched to 12 hours, with each pilot getting around a 4 hour rest break. Anything over 12 hours requires two full cockpit crews (Captain & First Officer) and everybody works half the time and then rests. Just FYI: all 4 guys/girls are in the cockpit for takeoffs and landings. Report this Post to the Staff
