Prof Plum. I don't know how close you have to live. I also live in Lincs and for two years flew out of Birmingham for JMC (now Thomas Cook) which was a 90 minute drive. I thought I'd be ok with this but in the Summer when doing consecutive night duties I found it massively fatiguing. With hindsight I should have found a B&B or shared flat or some other accommodation to have dealt with this. If I were to go back to charter ops (which I'm not going to!) I would not want a regular commute of much more than 30 mins or so.

I know that people manage all sorts of commutes perfectly well, but that's my experience - hope it helps.

Best of luck
