B777 Captain- Calendar year 2005- months without vacation- Not including Rest Days:
Your talking about
2006 TP is talking about
2005 2 different years in my book.
TP did not tell any porkies.
Have to say my average days off more like 9 a month I'm just a line guy. Been my experience that the company will work the butt of you then you stand round doing nothing. Done the 900 hr maximum hour thingy and I try and avoid going Ultra Long haul Flights.
Even had X0 or Extra days off because being high on hours and had the company ring me up to do...wait for it SIMM SUPPORT.....which I regretfully declined.
Doesn't matter which fleet your on these days now or in the future your going to end up working harder.
