Scroggs, thanks for the info, I did a couple of searches but couldn't find this info out, and the various websites (ppjn, balpa, etc.) seem to have out of date info.
So from what you say the trips are around 4-5 days long. I guess that is one day out and two days (overnight) back, or vice versa depending on direction of travel. Then 2 days off, then another 4-5 day trip?
What are your average hours per month.
Just want to get all the (first hand) info as don't want to jump out of the frying pan and into the fire!!!
