Yes it has...., and yes you can...!
Most people that try it don't really do it long term, you get tired at both ends...! Too many days at home and your better half inevitably will get into the naggin stage towards the end of it.
And almost 6 weeks on duty gets way too long as well..., you find yourself just keeping a nose up attitude and waiting for the runway to come to you.., no more flare nor caring after 5 weeks or so.
Once a year to get your vacation it's alright and I think many do just that....., I don't think people stick with it long term.
