Not that I'll probably feel like being away from home more than 8 days at a time but I need to find a way to build some multi time without paying for it. It doesn't have to be a lot, just a little here and there would be nice.



Has anybody here built any multi time on the side while working for PS ?



Also I'd like to know how much flight time per year you get and about how much instrument time per year?



And typical upgrade time? (I know it's merit based)



Thanks.

It's tough to fly the max amount per month in only 16-17 days of duty. Average is about 50/month.

I know of two folks in the past who worked for my old company flying King airs/twin Cessnas on their off days. Just need CP approval. I was going to do the same, but I'd rather just be at home on my 6 days off.

About 550-600 per year is average.

Typical upgrade time is based on merit. 1500 hrs min. If you're an FO after 2 years, you're doing it wrong.
