For the uninformed Bob Brown

There is a difference between duty time and flight time. If you do 52 hours flight time a week for short haulers that is at least 104 hours duty time. That doesn't allow for sim, reserves, ground school, special courses, medicals, leave or a life in general.

Longhaul if you do 52 hour flightime a month you are still doing at least 62 hours duty time with the added thrill of the jet-lag. Anyone who says sitting in the cockpit for 10 hours isn't work has obviously never done it.

You either have no idea what you are talking about or are deliberately misleading those who don't. Are you a manager?

We can give you your own thread. Let's call it Brown stuff!
