Autobrake Low

I am a low cost Captain now, and my lifestyle and fatigue levels are far better now than when I worked for VS.

I was permanently jet lagged.

And 15 years is realistic. No matter what you may think, there are 500 FO's ahead of any new joiners. All waiting.

If a lifestyle of being away from home, with crews who you never see in a hotel you are visiting for the 3rd time in a month is your kind of lifestyle, then I strongly recommend that you sign up.

For me, it wasn't. I took my Voluntary severance and ran.

I enjoy my Command - I'd waited 11 years for it.
