However we don't do 100 hour rosters, around 75-85 duty time is normal for us, and time in the bunk counts.
So to put that in perspective, if an EK pilot is doing 102 hours and bunk time doesn't count, they are doing what compared to an Air NZ pilot? Ie if you included bunk time for an EK pilot who regularly does 100 hours, would that be 1.5 times the amount of time an Air NZ pilot spends in an airborne aircraft? 1.6 times? 1.7 times? I've never done long haul so I don't know the answer.
