Sure beats driving. When I was a trainee in Tamworth and my wife was working in Artarmon I could finish work at 4 pm and be back home for dinner by 6:30?

Oh, and it took longer to get from the eastern suburbs to Bankstown on the train than it took me to get from Bankstown to Port Macquarie.

I am so fabulously lucky. This little plane, while a total extravagance, has the fuel economy of a Holden Commodore and allows me to train in Sydney on fellowship and still get back regularly to support my wife in Port Macquarie who is providing legendary obstetric and gynaecological care here.

But what if things had a positive Poisson ratio? Then things get weird.
