Make an agreement with your wife. Agree upon one time per week that is your
flying time. If she objects, offer her the same amount of time to do
something by herself while you watch the kids. Works pretty good for me.
My wife goes to school 2 nights per week, I teach a ground school 2 nights
per week. One of those nights we are both gone and a babysitter is offered
up as a sacrifice to our two wonderful cannibalistic children. I also get
to hang out at the airport Sunday mornings and/or fly, some of which my son
accompanies me.

Hi all. I've noticed a considerable decrease in flight hours since my son
was born a little over a year ago. My wife is also 5 months pregnant with
another so flying time may suffer further decline. I'm wondering...what
are
some of your experiences during the life-changing event of a new family
and
flying? Did you start flying more often after the kids hit a certain age?
What did you do to find more time?

I found that I can get *some* more flying in by waking up at 5:30 Saturday
morning or flying after 10 PM on other nights. Don't get me wrong, I love
my
family and thank God for everything but darnit, I love flying too!

Thoughts?

Regards,

Marco
