SM, On the face of it yes but back then it was 1300 to 2100, then standby at home till 0800 till 1300. 13 hrs at work 11 standby. If 35+ days holiday are factored in it gives, for round figures 1400 duty hrs plus what ever is given for the standby time. The amount of night call-outs were low maybe only 10% giving interrupted standby.
I must say that in my 5 years with BHL on SAR the only crew I remember running short of hrs were the winchies and that was due to them standing extra shifts so others could get time off to get off the island.
As I say I'm well out of it now and not up to date so open to correction, so what is the actual crewing with CHC in Scotland and Lee?
