Go to Colgan if you want to be home every night.
|
If you are in IOE and already feel this way, you are either in the wrong business or are not gonna make a good commuter. Perhaps moving to CVG would be the solution?
|
but think about how many flight attendants youll get to rail over your career. its a beautiful thing. happy thoughts like that keep your attitude positive :)
|
So what if you were a truck driver for 9 years and you are used to being gone 3 weeks at a time and off for 3 days?
|
This is the real deal!! Got past the shiny jet and now you see what the job really is! I new a guy who bailed from TranStates like this. All that money spent training and he couldn't see what the job really was. I do, however, know how you feel. It does go away after awhile. Stick it out, though, you'll be glad you did.

I hate leaving home too, but who doesn't? If you don't miss home, then you A) need a new wife/husband B) Need better friends C) Need to find some more hobbies, because flying for the regionals is not suppose to fill that void.
All that said I think it is just human nature to want more time for personal things. However, once I get out on the road I do enjoy flying most of the time. It is just managing to get away from the house that is tough. |

Is this really a topic on "Airline Pilot Central?" Go fly a desk and stop crying.

I am on IOE for Comair and everytime I come home, I dont want to leave again. It seems difficult to enjoy the job when I only want to get home! Any one else feel this way. I get depressed when I have to leave home. I think of reasons to quit the job, like yesterday I almost missed my flight on purpose to CVG trying to commute to work.
