It's not a legally required day off so crewing/rostering don't care.

It is obviously a fairly old roster (one hour report times were changed to 1:25 a while back) so the unfortunate recipiant will not be easy to identify. However, it is still typical of what is being inflicted on us today.

Could anyone please explain what empty lines mean in the attached roster (06, 12, 18 etc)? A stand by day? If yes, do you have to be available during 24h on these days?

Hi Kakaru, those are working days. Some are so called "rest days", days when you don't actually work in their 24 hours, but they definitely can't be counted as days off, for example if you leave the next day at 2 am.
Others are plain working days, it just doesn't show so immediately. Take the 18th, the day before the flight ends at 08.50(+).
Means it actually arrives at 08.50 but not on that day, one day "plus" (+). So on the 18th.
Also, the 18th and 12th and the 20th are layovers. So maybe you are not working in the airplane, but you are where you are for your duty.

Cheers
KL

And don't forget all the on line courses that have to be done at home in your own time. Dangerous goods, sim technical, crm, etc etc.

I don’t think anything makes sense here.
It’s all going to Hell in a Hand Basket very rapidly.
