Those must be good workrules to credit 120 hours every month.
At my regional we have lots of 4 hour sits, deadheads, and 32 hour layovers. Our best trips average around 4 hours a day; and many of our 4-days average 15 hours or less. And that's if you're a lineholder.
I'm only a 7th year FO, so I'm on reserve. I'm looking at a 75 hour guarantee at $41.54/hour. I'll be lucky to break $38,000 this year.
