Capt Twin turboprop,
Highest 551hrs in 2001
lowest 153hrs in 2009
A total of 6 months off each year.
Can't complain either

800 hours last 12 months, 1350 duty hours, flying around 90 hours a month over summer, dropping to 50 a month over the winter...
Recently outdid myself by flying 94 hours in a calendar month...and had a week of leave in the middle of it!
