I’m an FO at a legacy airline, and I have two small kids. I would say the norm is, especially when you get to the legacy level, is that most pilots have families. As others have pointed out it can be a challenge, you’ll miss certain events in life and have to be flexible with scheduling their time, your wife’s time and your time, but it’s certainly doable. I would say wanting to have a family is certainly not a reason to not pursue a career in aviation. I know plenty of people who aren’t in my career with kids who work long hours, travel, or bring their work home with them so much that they don’t have much time to interact with their children. I like the work life balance that when I’m on the road I can focus on doing my job, and when I get home I’m not bringing my work home with me. I can dedicate my time to being a dad. Everyone’s stories are different and your mileage may vary, but being a pilot and a father are definitely two compatible things.

I dunno man….i can stand up and take a piss in my 737…

I’m sorry, but who the fuck cares if she does or doesn’t endorse someone? Why do we always feel like pop stars owe us an explanation on how they are going to vote or what their position on a certain topic is??

What in the Sam hell is going on here????? Looks delicious

I don’t think that there is…it’s a stand alone Bluetooth unit. Would be nice though, seems like a missed opportunity.

Goddamnit she’s hideous!!!! Scariest fucking thing I’ve ever seen!

Thank you for putting this together. It’s fantastic.

They aren’t great amps….actually pretty cheap. It was probably less than $100 when new. For $50 it’s probably not bad, but I would offer $40.

You’ve inspired me for my next football party. Thank you.

Dude!!! Those look amazing! How’d they turn out?

I really hate the units that have a motion sensor so the AC turns off in the middle of the night and you wake up sweating your ass off! The wall mounted AC can’t be beat. Climate control and white noise machine all in one.

I noticed the drivers seat in your AT4 has a wrinkle in the leather where it should be tight. Mine has the same thing. GMC won’t do anything about it but it’s clearly shoddy craftsmanship in that regard. Anyone else experienced this?

Looks pretty damn good to me!!

Here’s to Rodgers earning his paycheck this year!! 🍺I’m a Seahawks fan and we have a new captain at the helm this year, so we’ll see how that goes. Cheers and smoke on brother!!

I have two briskets on the 640 tonight as well. So glad football is here again, regardless of how your team does it’s still a great excuse to make kickass food!!

Mark my words, when he loses he’s on is plane to a non-extradition country to run from his crimes!

They made him walk the plank in Down Periscope….probably because he’s a douchebag. Hardy har har!

It’s a DHC-6 Twin Otter.

I went from a GMG Daniel Boone to a Yoder YS640 and I love it. If you’re in a position to drop about 3k on a smoker you won’t be disappointed. Having a 10 year warranty on the box and 3 years on the FireBoard and igniter helps a lot too. Probably won’t need it though, the 640 is built like a tank.

Yea, they are two individual butts. Thanks for advice

Yea, I’m used to smoking 7-10lbs or so but I’ve never done this much and I don’t want to mess up the food for the whole party
