Cool Modern Pilot 'Lifestyles.'

As a current Jet Transport driver in the UK I am frustrated by the seeming inability of my company to work me in what I consider a sensible manner that benefits everyone.

I would be very grateful if I could have some feedback on roster patterns from other companies to compare with my own, to see if I am being unreasonable or simply 'a dreamer'.

Do companies like Southwest and others in the states really work guys 80hrs and still get 12 and more days off a month?And if so why can't we?

Is this a midlife crisis or are their others who want a job where they are more likely to retire normally rather than on medical grounds ten years early?

Come on make me jealous!
