Xiaman----the math is basic. 90 hours a month times 10 months is 900 hours. The next 42 days are vacation. That leaves a half month. We havn't even taken into consideration factoring and bunk time. Or the fact that any training is not included in that time.
Thanks, Trader. Yes, it is pretty basic, but this is what people are saying:
Flying in excess of 90 hrs/month. 30 days leave, not 42 days. 60 hrs flown in a leave month (2 week blocks) so add 120 hrs to those 90+ monthly hours. No or very little factoring on the T7. So total somewhere between 1000 and 1100 hrs.
OK?
But then Mr Yorkshire Pudding says:
Ok, you will fly 900 hours a year in the seat plus augmenting hours on top. Most are at 895+ rolling.
Again, the numbers do not add up. Am I a troll for pointing this out?
SOPS, with all due respect, you have left EK. You have no right to tell me to stop asking questions. Should I guess, you are close to 60 with more than 15 years in EK. Full payout from the provident fund, and good savings from a "long" EK carreer. You can afford to retire. Good for you!
I'm not there, I need correct information, so I ask questions.
