noody - I learnt a long time ago here that the best way to draw in expert opinion to a thread is to make a bold contestable statement. Someone reads it and steams in to shoot it down.

A lively informed debate ensues. Thanks for steaming in

Just about every long haul pilot I know (only half a dozen or so) are divorced or getting divorced. Its just something I have noticed.

How does one manage a wife with a career and a two year old and you being in Hong Kong for another coupld of days and shes on the phone having a rant about her crappy day and having to mow the lawn again?

I don't know. Not married, no kids and never done long haul. But it looks like a tough proposition to me. Perhaps BA is easier due to Bidline.

I think every Wannabe at some point wants to fly a Jumbo. I know for me that is something I no longer want. Sods law dictates that within a couple of years I'll now end up on an A380 somewhere and noody will be around to point out the irony!

Cheers,
