I would like to have around 300 hours to avoid disability if I break a leg or get really sick, but I’ve never been able to accrue more than 150 hours. It’s been building since I’ve been nonqual and home waiting for training, but they are sure to find me soon and assign a class date. Im expecting my sick bank to take another hit in a couple of months when deer season starts. It’s strange how some people get sick the same time every year and also in the same month as recurrent. Training on days off tends to make people feel the need to recover those days off and ensure that you are fit for duty.
