Cargo Pilot Lifespan
Is it possible that cargo pilots endure a shorter lifespan than traditional commercial airline pilots as a consequence of their often erratic sleeping patterns. This question is based on my assumption that cargo pilots frequently change time zones and perform a large portion of their flying at night.
Please exclude variables such as genetics, weight, lifestyle, etcetera from my question.

BS. I flew more at night in the military. Pax guys get up at 3:30 am for the 5 am flights and that sounds worse to me than flying from 8 pm until 2 am and sleeping til noon.
Unless you have some serious scientific evidence to support your assumption, get rid of it.
