AB2,
I can't imagine the UK pilot training being too much different than ours. You're home every night...with a few exceptions, and weekends...with a few exceptions. You crack the books during the day when not briefing/flying, minimalizing the "BS" with the bros when not briefing/flying, will all lead to more time with the wife at night. Get her involved with the wives clubs if she is not employed with a career. Doesn't the Brits allow the wives into the club after the Squadron functions on Fridays? Hec...you could one-up your bros because you'll be going home with a hotty while your single classmates go home to snap-the-bean! This should be the easiest assignment, in regards to a repetitive home life, as you could get!
