Finally, an explanation to my thirst for beer!
(after the work is done, of course
)
Ok guys, more seriously this time. I have recently transitioned to a more complex jet. I have noticed several of the symptoms that were mentioned regarding dehydration. I have to admit I rarely drink as much water as what you guys are saying I need. Since, I started flying this airplane I have felt far more tired by the last day of a trip then I ever did in my previous aircraft. I have always thought it was due to the increased complexity of this aircraft. That really does not make sense though, because now I have an autopilot and I am only flying 2-5 legs a day. The dehydration scenario is plausible since now I am flying in the much drier flight levels. I am starting a three day trip today and will do my best to drink the minimum amount of water that you guys describe. I will let you know how it works out. (and how many times I have to run to the lav, if you want to know :o)
servus,
