First year, including all but the first two weeks of training= 585. Was trying to build fast but displacements really hurt. Probably lost ~ 150-200 flying hours. Second year so far, 4.5 months=201 hrs scheduling 80-85/month. WX cancels and displacements have hurt that a lot.
- How much could an FO log if they wanted to maximize their time-building?
83.3 hrs/month = 1000 max/year. Very doable and sustainable. 90+ hrs (flown, not credit) I find exhausting if I want a life outside the job.
- Ignoring a year that includes upgrade training, how many hours is the average line-holding CA logging per year?
Thanks in advance for any input!
