I’ve heard military guys say they’d rather be in Afganistan than have to endure regional schedules. True story. Although it came from a tanker pilot.
Would I rather be in the front of an air conditioned cockpit where I need only press a magical button and a cold Diet Coke will appear and the greatest hazard I face is the van ride to the hotel, or would I rather be in a 120 degree cockpit wearing chicken plate, shoving frozen 1Ltr bottles of water under my flight vest in an attempt to stay cool, worrying if this is the mission I get to test out my IR suppressors against that new Iranian IR MANPAD... hmmmm... let me ponder that one.
