afternoon ladies, 

I am looking for some advice from wives who’s other half’s work as an Emirate pilot. He stand is considering the move but I wanted and honest opinion from people experiencing the work first hand. How is the flying? Good family life/Work balance? And finally average time to command? 

Sorry for the questions but sometimes the website doesn’t give all of the answers and an honest opinion is needed.

Many thanks is advance

Xx

I have a few friends who are pilots and they're pretty pushed to the limit right now. The queue and training for command is looooooooong, my friend has been waiting ages - he was a Captain at his previous airline, had to go to Emirates as an FO, still waiting to do his command tests and he's way more qualified with far more hours than some of the current Captains. They seem to live good lives and are pretty happy, but they don't have children, which I guess makes a huge difference.
