what I haven’t done is complain to her about how miserable I am , ( I’m not ) , our flying is certainly challenging, and dynamic, but in the XL as of late I wouldn’t call it hard, let alone WAY harder than 121 airline flying. Besides we have the most liberal fatigue policy in the industry. DC3 on demand cargo ? Now that was grueling, tough, challenging....fill in the adjectives, Cheers : )
It’s not the flying. It’s everything else you do every day that constitutes 70% of your actual work day at a frac. And if taking care of the plane is easy you need to go buy your partner a beer and apologize to them. Because you’re working them to death.
