Holidays & call out
For all of you operating 604 / 704 “corporate aircraft” what type of call out are you typically operating under and how are days off per month addressed?

Re: Holidays & call out
Typically scheduled between 2 weeks and a month out with the ability to book days off as long as it doesn't conflict with the boss down the line. I've been flying so long for the same guy and he's very consustent with his schedule that I know when to book and when not to book extra curricular activities.Free Woodpecker wrote: ↑Sat Nov 06, 2021 6:57 pm For all of you operating 604 / 704 “corporate aircraft” what type of call out are you typically operating under and how are days off per month addressed?
Only occasionally does charter impede on a day off where I've planned something. Most times if I bring it up, if its important, with my boss he just cancels the charter or rearranges departures.
I think our call out is 12+ hours, but I can't remember the last time I had to accept a 'last minute' trip.
Best of luck.

No pension - gotta make your own way with whatever you can negotiate for a contribution, and no travel 'benies'.Blueontop wrote: ↑Mon Nov 08, 2021 2:42 pmschnitzel2k3 wrote: ↑Mon Nov 08, 2021 5:33 amTypically scheduled between 2 weeks and a month out with the ability to book days off as long as it doesn't conflict with the boss down the line.

Re: Holidays & call out
To put it lightly, we've unfortunately had our disagreements. That being said, I try to forgive and move forward. Don't know if feelings are mutual.

It wouldn’t be aviation with no drama.

The only drama I like is when when the bucket of beers I ordered in Nassau is cheaper than I anticipated.PitchLink wrote: ↑Sat Nov 13, 2021 5:29 amschnitzel2k3 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 12, 2021 6:18 pmTo put it lightly, we've unfortunately had our disagreements.
