Apparently if you use just over half of your leave during NOV-APR and use the chosen day off system you might only do 1 or 2 trips a month. I don't know anyone on the 787 nordic, but I don't imagine anyone will get 78 unless rated. My buddy says they are super short on 73, that's where I'd set your expectations (don't know if they have a nordic thing for 737). Good luck
Thanks Clam chowder for the info. I got the impression from the vacancy that you’ll be based in the Nordics for the period with local accommodation rather than being offered to position out for trips? It’s the having to be based out there that’s causing doubt. My main concern was whether you’d be stuck on this for a few winters.
Is the shorter time to command people mention a blip and most likely to plan on 10 plus years?
