BigEasy, my point was clear - I was not complaining rather I was attempting to explain that moving to the 340/330 is not the godsend people think it is. My friends on the 320 make quite a bit more than I do on the paystub. The last 2 months has seen less OT but prior to that they made good cash.

The simple fact is the Euro stops are bloody expensive so even if I have the same TAFB as the 320/767 guy I spend significantly more of it. Again, it is all point of view is it not? MY sked also flops from day to night far more than the 320/767 guys. I have the skeds of both fleets in front of me. My sked has blocks where I fly all day, 24 hours off, fly all night, 24 hours, fly all day, 24 hours off, fly all night. My sleep pattern changes 4 times. Far less of that on the other fleets.

Anyway, not to belabour the point, but it 'ain't all roses' on the 330/340.
