Heard from an aquaintance (how ever you spell that word) whom got hired by an american carrier on the 320 and claimed he flew around 3000 hours in 8 months. I find this ridiculous as there are only 5760 hours in 8 months...anyone know what the FAA maximum duty times are?

The limit is 1000 hours/year down the border and 1200 hours/year up here.
I did 900 hours last year.

Cheers

Then that would make my total time 250,000 hours.

The hardest thing about flying is knowing when to say no


After over a half a century of flying no one ever died because of my decision not to fly.

Nah, he just finally figured out how to handle a 6 knot crosswind :wink: Hows that go again Cat? Is it rudder into the wind or out?

Nevermind now I remember, it is power idle, feet planted on the floor, full flap, and try and keep it off the runway as long as possible :rolleyes:
