That is a more complicated question. When doing ULR, you cannot log the time spent in the bunk unless you are the operating crew. So for a typical 28 hour return to Ozzie, you will probably book about 21 hours. They call this factoring and it means that you can fly more than the legal limits. For the 5 years pre-covid, I averaged about 950 hours per year block time and it comes out at about 800 hours stick time. At the end of the day, they paid me for 950 hours.

Make no mistake, you will fly a lot and work hard but it is not the 120 - 150 hours with 6 ULR that you described earlier. My 90 hours this month represents 5 hours overtime and they will pay me an extra $1 000 for this.
