So for you pilots out there working jobs that can put you in the seat for hours at a time, how do you react when mother nature lets you know its time to go? This should be an interesting topic

I stop and go. PHI had a 3 1/2 hour max period between level checks, which made breaks mandatory.

I try to avoid too much liquid intake prior to flight, or when on call, during those hours, and in flight to limit intake to just what's needed. I avoid caffeinated drinks that act as diuretics.

 

In the aircraft, I carry an empty gator aid bottle, and plan restroom brakes to coincide with fuel.

 

On long range flights, I use the lav.

I used to limit my intake, then one hot ass all day in the 44, I got dehydrated,... not a fun experience at a thousand feet.

 

Drink a lot when its hot, and just pee in your Depends. :D
