So for those going to interviews don't let them sell you on this idea of "oh you'll work 7/10 and get standby at home days," this is no longer the case.
So explain this a little more please. If you're not scheduled to fly, you're expected to sit at the airport for 14 hours?
So if youre on the 10/5 every day you're not flying youre sitting in an FBOa for 14 hours?
This doesn't make a lot of sense. You have to live in base, if you're on your 10 day (or 8) rotation why not just have an hour call out.
What time do these 14 hour sits start?
