Hi Felixthecat, I’ve been there as well. When blocks of flights are so close together and you don’t know if you’re coming or going. Not nice.

My last gig would be 80-90hrs of multi sector days for a loco. Doing 4 take offs and landings in one day, with all the added problems of pax, baggage etc..... all for about 5hrs flying on a bad day. To do one sector to Europe which takes 6hrs, spend a day there and 6 hrs home..... that’s where I find this type of flying much easier.

We’ve definitely felt the cost of living increase here, but we’re still managing to get a good amount into savings each month. As my old local supermarket says, ‘every little helps”

Murrenfan. No need to fake anything. All I can say is I wish I was on the 380.... my mates roster seems even nicer.
