Unfortunatley, to me, good tasty food, sustenance and a healthy intake of nutrition is very important - I value my health first and foremost. Whether I bring my own food, or whatever, I would have to eat reasonably well in order to be able to have enough lasting energy to fly well. I doubt I could stomach airline food all the time -- i'm sure its lacking in taste + nutrition anyway.

Regarding what you were saying, my interest to persue the career would be a motivating factor to get up at 3AM. However, the food thing is vital, as I would require sustenance to fly, and I have always been very sensitive/picky regarding what I eat. This is why I am asking this question, to see whether it would be possible to do this career given my situation.

Therefore, I was just wondering what kind of things pilots do, their eating habbits, etc.

I did not expect such a blunt/insensitive reply.

Thank You

I don\'t understand you smokey, why would bringing my own food be \'such a bother\'. Is this not allowed, is it frowned upon? Are you saying that the only food you guys eat is airline food or airport fast food in general? How do you expect that can nourish you properly for long flights?
