Your QOL will be vastly superior to AD USAF. The job is easier, pays more, you get paid based on how hard you work,or don’t work, far less stressful at work, very laid back. I’m happier driving to the airport to commute to a four day than any Monday drive to work in my AD career. The first year kinda sucks and you need to prepare your wife for the transition to airline life. It is an adjustment, embrace it, and you’ll do fine...or feel sorry for yourself, and you’re not going to be happy.
