The standard touring roster with CHC Australia is 2 weeks on, two off, but you still get your entitled 6 weeks annual leave. (Standard annual leave in Oz is 4 weeks, if you do shift work, as our roster is classed as, you get 6 weeks) You earn your two weeks off as you've just spent two weeks away in some crappy location, (usually) so it has nothing to do with your annual leave entitlement.

Question for you North Sea chaps..what or were is "SCATSA" I'm assuming it's the Shetlands?

Also, if you do two weeks on in Aberdeen, what are you actually doing there? There's no Jigsaw SAR aircraft based there is there? If not what are the winchops doing, working in head office photocopying???
