Your work schedule?
I'm just curious as to what is everyone's typical work schedule and number of hours flown each month.
Here is my schedule:
Monday to friday 5am to 9:30am
Weekends off
40 to 60 hours of flight per month.

Re: Your work schedule?
Around work everyday unless the weather is crap, then I sleep in if the boss can't find something else for me to do. Work ends when the sun goes down and can start when it goes up. Last year did 450 hours in about 4 months. With some time off when I needed it.

Schedule? 
Sometimes it's monday to friday, sometimes 13 on 3 off, sometimes 10 on 3 off, sometimes on call 24 hours straight, nights, days, and everything in between. Praying for break up right now. Sometimes next month's schedule comes out 2 weeks in advance, sometimes 12 hours before the end of the month. Who needs a schedule anyway? Making plans is overrated anyway...or so I've heard.

Jazz. Ive been busy lately watching all the reruns of The Hills. I also found a very rare copy of one of the MacGyver movies (trail to doomsday) on youtube which I'm going to be watching very soon.

Re: Your work schedule?
Typical day is 7h00 to 20h00. Log 8 to 9 hours flight time. Do this 7 times a month with a couple other shorter days.
Last year worked 130 days in the year, logged 800 hours.
