And what is this "normal" , because never heard of it. In pool for more then a year . What I heard is that they have hired a british company (again) and they are responsible for carrying out these checks.

MAX 10 days off/ month( for all pilots) : a new non Sense rule IMHO introduced in April .
Yes you can bid for 6 days off in a row(max).
if you want more you can try to bid for days off at the end of the month, and beginning of next month...
Bidding for it , doesn't mean you will get it.

Hi All,

Would anybody be kind enough to PM me a crew report for 777 FO's? Just trying to ascertain the rostering conditions before deciding to join.

Best of Luck!

Cheers,

D

Be patient guys. The seniority list has not suffered too many casualties just lately, and most standbys do not get called out from short notice (from my own experience and others around me). I understand that some Spanair copis are starting to find work back home already though???
