I think 87 hours per month average is probably about right.

I once had a 125 hour month. 1 in 12 years.

I have flown with Captains who were getting 140 hours of pay with multiple green-slips. I believe this.

I have heard about 200 hour months - pretty hard to do but it is possible.

I do not see how 300+ hours is possible. Even if you had an 88 hour award and then had your whole month replaced with green-slips with conflict (which is probably not mathematically realistic in a category over 150 crews) you would still be well short of 300.

Please explain how this would be possible. And then sign me up for the 300 hour/month plan.
