That's a new one!
XCrew, my critics usually try to shame me off the board by suggesting that I'm neglecting my children and/or housework. Others hope to embarrass me into leaving. None have been successful. Thanks anyway, but I'm happy in this forum. What credibility I have here was gained through perseverance and articulation. It also helps to have an excellent source..
Fernando, our background in the AF must help explain my interest in my husband's career. The AF had a "two for one" attitude towards officers wives. Fighter squadrons are a tight knit community and families are an important part of the mission readiness. I'm not saying other aviation communities aren't much the same; I'm just sharing my experience and the reason that I'm comfortable talking to pilots. Add to that my strong convictions that the pilots must stand up for themselves and their families and you get an opinionated wife who's not afraid to stand on a "soap box" and cry foul when she sees something wrong.
PILOTS ARE PROFESSIONALS AND SHOULD BE COMPENSATED ACCORDINGLY
THE LIFESTYLE IS HARD ON FAMILIES SO IT MUST BE JUSTIFIED BY THE PAY
