It works for me and mine , we are a 2 pilot family , and the 7&7 &, health care , make this palatable for us , we have found a sweet balance, during the furlough I was flying 747 long haul which I loved but was tough on the familia , Gods grace ,at the present time , this place is working for us . I totally and completely respect why people want to leave , there are opportunities in abundance out there : )
