Barry 737 from LHR 12 months to date:

527 Flying hours.
1381 Duty Hours.
19 Positioning sectors.
74 Standby duties.
124 Days Off.
6 Weeks leave.
67 Night stops.
(Bid preference minimum night stops).

High duty hours due to long turn rounds and multi sector days.

Lots of roster changes.

'Bout average I suppose.

385 hours flying. More days than I can remember in hotels (not nights - that's when we flew). Eu. freight operator. I don't do it anymore.

Now working for a UK regional. Flights hours are higher - about double - but, oh the joys of sleeping at night at home!

A320 Fo Virgin Sun.
600hr in 2000
2-3 nightstops/month during summer.
Mostly longish sectors LCA TFS DLM etc.Worked out to about 3 or 4 days per week. Sometimes less.

Britannia 738 429 block hours over 116 sectors in Jan-Dec 2000 hardly any of it from home base so lots of time away/allowances and loads of interesting night stops.Pay per flying hour we do pretty well ,life style I,m not so sure about.Lifes never perfect and "tomorrow is another day".

890 hours in 2000. Up to 6 sectors on some days with the average around 3 to 4. Quite a good deal was also training. In my opinion this is pretty hard work so I am interested in what you long haul guys think. Surely you do not log flight hours for time spent in your bunk, as some Asian carriers do? Being realistic, lying down hardly has anything to do with the actual operation the a/c does it? I would be interested in your opinions.

Shakespeare,

I think that you're working bloody hard! I hope, for your sake, that you don't do that many hours every year.

As for bunk time, at BA time in the bunk does count towards your 900 hours maximum per year. It may or may not have alot to do with flying the aircraft - it just depends what you are dreaming about! Seriously though, long range operations are only made possible (and legal) by the provision of adequate horizontal rest facilities for the crew.

A330/A320 for Swissair

380 hrs A330
290 hrs A330
------------
670 hrs total

Around 120 nightstops

About 1200hrs this year. Longest leg is about 3hrs. Lots of landings and approches.

1277 on 737s. Real bludge year comparatively speaking.

Britannia. 750 hours in the previous year.

Monarch. 810 hours.

approx.650/CSA Czech Airlines

i did

400h in 2000, on cessna 150,seneca,and some small turboprop in USA.bad paid , maybe 6000US dollars.

i need a serious job!!!!
FAA ATP pilot ,european citizen

I also work for the white hatters based in LGW. 414 block hours a year flown for the last two years. Never worked harder than 625 hours a year,only because the powers that be can't pull their thumbs out and sort out crewing/rostering ect. I spend all my time taxi's or hotac. Not a sensible use of a very expensive resource. It must be all my fault.I must remember to ask for a paycut.

Last year I have flown 944 hrs Blocktime on 737-400/800 for Air Berlin. I did work on 162 days, so average flight time per day is around 5,8 hrs.
On the other hand, I had lots of Standby-duties and more of these crazy "Available". If you have not been called for duties (flight or stby) the day before until 10 pm, you got OFF.

Happy landings !

easyjet 760 hrs, 60 nightstops, 200 roster changes.

British Midland

The ugly- me after the nightflights!
