WE WERE ASSUMING THE REFERENCE TO “PARTNER” meant another female..
but what if the Pilot was her partner, and he was giving her “some mission training fly time (pay-boost) and some hours on her record.” ???
SenatorAndyKim at USAID: “I talked to the security guard just in there. He said he has been given specific orders to prevent employees of USAID from entering the building today. I just find that to be absolutely ridiculous. This is no way to govern.”

As long as you make your mins, you get flight pay. Later you have 'gates' based upon experience (around a 1000 is the low gate). When you hit the 'gates', you get more flight pay. While the relationship is possible the statement is defamatory to a guy who died and was married. And unless he wrote the flight schedule he wouldn't be able to arrange it. If the female showed such affinity the scheduler would have ended that.
Can domestic partners be paired on [CLAS] missions?
