You can get waivers for everything... but yea everyone in the flying community flies an average of 3 days a week. Of course aircraft type will make the vary. If you fly high level tanker stuff it's not that big of a deal. I do 6 hour low level missions at 300AGL and it really sucks sometimes. I get headaches, dehydrated...a little sick sometimes (have not thrown up yet), plus I gotta stand up the whole time.. I would work for it if you wanted it..
