Just found this wonderful post on Reader's Digest, things your pilot will not tell you. Enjoy:
1. “The truth is, we’re exhausted. Our work rules allow us to be on duty 16 hours without a break. That’s many more hours than a truck driver. And unlike a truck driver, who can pull over at the next rest stop, we can’t pull over at the next cloud.” -Captain at a major airline
“We miss the peanuts too.” -US Airways pilot, South Carolina
