ODEN
Can't say for UK or US but in Australia the schedule varies accross the board.
We have 24 hours on with 48 hours off. Other places have two 10 hour day shifts followed by two 14 hour night shifts then four days off.
All the time still having to comply with regulatory flight & duty time limitations.
6 weeks annual leave, 10 days sick leave per year -- yadda, yadda, yadda!!
Hope it helps.
