Thanks everyone so far. It's offering a good insight for us who are sacrificing a huge amount (and late on) to make what is essentially a lifestyle choice. Ain't doing it for the money that's for sure!

How longs a piece of string ? Aviation attracts as much a cross section of humanity as anywhere else. If you have a problem with someone , you can’t escape, your stuck in 10’x10’ for hours......And don’t forget not all the aholes are in the LHS...
if you are doing it for the “ lifestyle “ your current one can’t be much cop.
