Hi,
Is somebody here flying on the worldwide flexible roster?
How does it work?
How many dutydays you have per year?
Is it possible to live from that money?
When is high season and when is low season?
Thanks!

I used to be on the WWD Roster.
1) It works as a pattern you decide upon.
2) As many duty days as you nominate to fly. They won't fly you home weekly. Realistically probably 3 to 4 weeks on min. Off your call.
3) Look at the daily rate and figure yourself if you can live on the money. The more days you work the more money you make.
4) High season is usually Hajj (The fun part) Low season is when they don't need you.
Take the fixed patterns e.g. 6/2 - 4/2 or whatever they are giving out these days. Then you can plan your life accordingly. If people weren't making money they wouldn't be there.
Cheers,
Pete.

Seen 2 years ago the last classic in Marana, was doing some part time A&P work there.
Was sad I used to fly this one as F/E, now was replacing landing gear seals prepping for storage.
We sure had a good time there.
Thanks for the memories.

Received the unpleasant news that Arngrimur Johannsson founder and ex CEO of Air Atlanta has suffered serious burn injuries after a crash involving a Beaver on a ferry flight. The Canadian co-pilot did not survive the accident.

The latest I have is that he is expected to recover. Burns take time and much suffering to recover from.He was indeed one of the good guys - the company changed for the worse when he sold out. Instead of being run by a professional it was run by amateur accountants.
