3- how much does 777 f/os fly average in a month and in a year?
4- how long does an upgrade to captain take ?
5- which one is worse barwa or ain khaled?
thanks in advance! Safe flights
big changes are a coming what with the introduction of EASA FTLs. Lots of gossip and speculation but seems to be: work harder and rest longer. A lot of 4 crew ops moves to 3 crew. Whether the comoany does its thing as stipulated by the "Operators responsibilities " is to be seen.
Like any airline Crewing management worth its salt, when the regs say minimum rest is X, they read it has target rest.
777 fly about 90-110 / mtg
people either love or hate Barwa/Ain Khalid.
good luck
