I don't quite understand how anyone at Airnet working Monday-Thurdsday with every weekend and most holidays off can complain about quality of life. Sure, you work the back side of the clock, but after a few months your body adjusts. And flying 8 hours a night...isn't that why you got into flying? I love flying 8 hours a night rather than sitting on my a$$ at some clapped out pilot lounge under a passenger terminal. At least flying freight, if I have to sit around, it is in a nice FBO.
This board just reminds me of how lazy pilots really are. A pilot working a 40-50 hour work week will always complain that he works too much and that his QOL sucks because of it. In four days, I generally work 40-50 hours, the same as anyone with a 9-5 job five days a week. The lucky thing for me is that I enjoy 3, almost 4 ful days off before returning to work.
If you don't like to work and all you want is time off, quit your job and go on welfare. You can join the rest of the lazy Americans in this country. I guess my final though/question is....why should a pilot be entitled to 18 days off a month or committed to only working 20-30 hours a week?
