[QUOTE="Running Turtles, post: 948503, member: 9402"] I'm sure your routine was different than what's normal as a modern airline pilot, but do you have any tips on how to counter the stresses of constantly changing between night and day work? I'm an FO at a semi-major in Europe (think Southwest) and typically do 4 flights, 5 days on with 3-4 days off. I've already decided that I'll avoid commuting at all costs and make sure to do both aerobic and anaerobic exercises, but there's no way in hell to get a consistent sleep rhythm. I'm in my early 20s and at the moment, I find it pretty easy, but some of the older guys are noticeably worn out. Also, nowadays there's a huge focus on the dangers of radiation and constant pressure changes on the body. I'm assuming NASA did a lot of research on this, do you have any input? [/QUOTE]
