Pilot training for the spouse

Here are some quotes from a small introduction to pilot training. If anyone is wondering why this still is scary for me just check some of these out......

What to expect when your spouse is in Pilot Training

"Acceptance into pilot training marks an initiation into a unique society--the society of Air Force pilots."

"Pilot training will be one of the most challenging times you will have ever encountered. The program is intensive and demanding, and the standards are high. The student pilot will literally spend almost every waking moment either in training or studying. Close to 100% of the student pilot’s attention and effort will be devoted to their training."

"Succeeding in pilot training will take a strong commitment from both partners. Couples also need thoughtful discussion before choosing to start a family during pilot training. The student pilot will be extremely focused on training and won’t have the time and attention necessary to be an active parent."

"You need to be very understanding and tolerant of the student pilot’s study needs. Very, very few student pilots are able to succeed on their own. Student pilots are strongly encouraged to form study teams. This means the student will not be at home much. It will be very difficult and may seem daunting at times, but the student will be spending more time with his or her fellow students than with you. After 12-hour days of training, the student will need to study 2–3 hours every day and more on weekends. You need to understand that the student pilot will be able to give very little time and/or attention at home while they are training to be pilots."

"Student pilots are not authorized to take leave during training except under extreme circumstances."

"Spouses are encouraged to form support groups to cope with loneliness and isolation, and for companionship. You may find yourself in an area that is completely different from the one you came from."

"DO NOT be ashamed or afraid to ask for help. Do not suffer alone. Family problems can greatly affect the student pilot’s career. In the Air Force, the member is performing a service for our country. This means that oftentimes, the member has to put the Air Force’s needs before family."

"You may find yourself with a lot of free time as pilot training consumes your spouse’s life."

Anyone else a little nervous after reading some of that????? Keep in mind this was supposed to be the encouraging part for me :) Are there any time machines out there, I would love to just skip the next two years and start fresh from there!
