Most retired guys work the sim for $500 a session. That is considered cheap. No one is going to do it for free. A current pilot is going to want more than that.

Sounds like a job for Ron Jeremy.

Can I bring a camera, two friends and a small pony?

Pretty sad times.

Guess at 58 I'm old but I remember the days when giving something back would be motivation enough for many. Especially someone trying to better their qualifications on their own nickel.

Not many of us got here without a little help.

I recently changed equipment and am no longer 757 qualified or I'd be glad to help you out.

You need to explain why you are doing the sim sessions and who is giving the sims. If you are trying to get a rating a seat filler needs to know that and the ground rules. It's possible there could be FAA implications to even a seat filler.

An 11 hr 3 day trip at $40/hr for 76 is considered being compensated handsomely now? Okay...

Oh. It's nothing complicated. Just three sims to master straight and level flight, some shallow turns, some fms and automation work. Don't need to do take offs, landings or single engine stuff...

I was thinking about an 18 or 19 hr 3 day like the last couple I've flown.......but anything would be better compensated than the OPs offer.
