Modified Standard Visitation for Airline Pilot
I am getting a divorce from my
husband who is a commercial
Airline Pilot, and we have a three
year old son. I have been told that
the Standard Visitation Schedule
will not be something the Courts
will order because of my
husband's inability to be in town
on all the days, however I am
uncertain about what type of
schedule will be best so that my
child's life, or mine, is not
disrupted by a schedule that
changes monthly. Please advise
me on what types of scheduling
possibilities there are for someone
in my position, or what the Courts
might order.

Re: Modified Standard Visitation for Airline Pilot
In order to deviate from the standard visitation, he will have to present a viable alternative to the court. He may or may not be successful -- that would depend on his reasons, the nature of his plan, and your reasons for opposing it.
This sounds like an excellent issue to try to resolve at mediation.
