Skyservice fly their guys on 14hr duty days.If the day is longer,you get an extra pilot up to 15 hrs.After 15 hr the flight is stopped enroute for a crew change.You fly to 85hr month,after which one is paid overtime.If away form home one gets$60 a dayexpenses.One is scheduled to get 10 guaranteed days of,or paid extra.Inthe 'peak'periods guys have flown up to 100hrs month(legal).
The 330(in from Europe)is crewed by Canadians.Some crews from the UK are to be used over the season as Skyservice flies the extra UK flying in their summer season(all to avoid training and layoffs)...Certain routes will be flown by 'wet lease' a/craft
(757 ex the prairies)..
Skyservice has a busy scheduled Winter season,and they will 'naturally'lose people to the O'seas jobs(emirates loves Canadians),ergo they will need to 'hire'some people in the near future..
