I never said it was a day off. I said it was a day at home. The implication going around here is that you disappear for 22 days of the months never to see your wife and kids. Take it any way you wish.

sorry I don’t believe u are doing 100 block in 12 days
housten for excample is a 16 hour flight you will be credited 24 for the entire trip you spend 56 hours there - the hole thing takes already 5 days min - leaving at begin at 3am arriving at 6am
I never said anything about block hours. The 100 hours is credit hours. Houston is worth 31.2 hours and I don't give a rats how many block hours it is. They pay me for the 31 hours, not 24. Houston also leaves at 08h20 and arrives back at 19h45.

in the end
88 or so is the target productivity so a min of two of those is need and you barely achieve 60 % productivity
I have no idea what this means.

For October, I have 95 hours credit plus manual handling - let's add 3 hours for that. I have also taken the liberty of adding 3.5 hour for the 1 day of leave I have. Again, make of that whatever you want.

Breaking up the 95 hours, I have 4 trips, 11 pink days ie days off, 3 rest days, 1 standby day and the sim session. 3 of the 4 trips will have me home before 9am.
