Number of pilots

Post by Galaxy »

Whether or not your corporate aircraft is commercially managed or privately operated, how many pilots do you have per plane, and how many hours a year does the plane do?

2 pilots per plane mostly, 250 hours a year.

A couple of the planes have 1 fulltime pilot and rely on contract pilots to fill the gaps. The owners are okay with the occasional cancelled flight due to no crew.

2 Full time, working on a third. About 250 hours a year, however quite a lot of overnights away- and thats the bit that grinds.

Instead of asking the same question on all the threads, maybe just apply to the places you want to work. You never know unless you take the shot.
