question to pilots
Hi there, and a Happy New Year to Everybody...
I'm French (hey, nobody's perfect ) and I'd like to ask pilots working in non French airlines a question :
in your company, how long ago before EOBT do you have to arrive to prepare the flight (long and short haul)?
What exactly do you have to do, and what has already been done when you arrive ?
I hope I've been clear enough..
Many thanks in advance for your answers :-)

Report time: 1+30 prior to Block Out (long haul only).
Crew briefing, review Dispatch Release and Flight Plan, review weather, confirm fuel, preflight airplane, check Dangerous Goods, do checklists, drink coffee.
Flight plan and weather SHOULD be prepared, load SHOULD be determined, initial fuel SHOULD be loaded...
