4 long trips or 12 night turns - one allows plenty of days off but I can assure you the fatigue hits you just as hard as all those short sectors.

I can only assume the happy with 105 hour guy is brand new, maybe less than 4 months in the company, and we'll see him asking about Ryanair basing options within a year.

To be clear, I wasn't saying the number of hours weren't a factor. They most certainly are. I was pointing out that too many hours, as we are experiencing now, combined with very limited recovery days, is worse than most considering this place can imagine.

For me it is unsustainable and staying is NOT an option.
