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.

Affirmative.....75/76 FO
I'm just trying to understand someone's motivation for taking this guy up on his offer.....if I had 3 days off and felt the need to fly I could pick up a 3 day trip and be compensated handsomely....why would I instead decide to commit to probably 12 hrs. In the box and some additional briefing time (undoubtedly at some unGodly hour at night or early morning) with some total stranger met off the internet? Honest Question.

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.
