The schedules for flight crew can seem strange to those who are accustomed to a straight 40 hour work week. It would take more time than I want to commit to try and explain these schedules. By FAA regulations we cannot have a duty day longer than 16 hours and I whole heartedly agree with that. However, I just finished a trip where one of our duty days was almost 14 hours. So when we had a break, we took a break. After grabbing something to eat I went back on the airplane to just relax, away from the hustle of the airport. As I sat down I noticed the tail of the aircraft next to me and knew I wanted this framed image of the fawn. It’s always fun to watch children look out the windows of our aircraft to see what animals they can find on the airplanes tails. In the background you can see the main terminal of DIA, where the roof looks like a series of tents.
