Interestingly, as a pilot, I’ve just learned that I’ve been at the controls of an airliner for a year and 2 months.

It's about time you came in to land then you must be getting low on fuel.

As another contractor said to me.

If you arent doing a 10 pound st, you ain't on a high enough hourly rate.

I reckon I spend 400 hours a year on the bog.

I like to take my time.

That is an exceedingly long sector. My longest was LHR - Buenos Aires 14 hours plus

The one that I often think about (because it's somewhat scary) is :

n) How many days of your life have you spent on an aeroplane?

And while I don't have the exact answer, I have previously calculated it is comfortably over 6 months for me! It adds up quickly when each trip to China, Japan, SFO, Taiwan etc = 1day on board and I have easily done 100 of those, plus then all of the other flights I've taken in my life. Scary to think I've spent more than half a year of my life on a plane (mostly in economy!)......

(p.s. I'm not a professional pilot, and I'm not counting the ~200 hours PPL time in that either)
