Not too forget consolidation as well. Now that only time in the actual seat counts towards the 100 hours.
As it should. Which is easy to accomplish, just let the other guy sleep a little longer. When you meet your crew just tell them, I'm on "consolidation" mind if I take the seat? Unless somebody seriously needs a landing they'll accommodate. As this stage you need as much seat time as you can get anyway. |

1-3 landings per month is EXACTLY correct. Unless you're being dishonest about if you need to leg or not (which some people are sadly). If you're an FO you get a TON of 3rd/4th seat time, especially considering the amount of OE going on.

Limo- HNN to Frankfurt ( not done yet ) Commercial to Stockholm An easy 11 hour day turned into a 21 hour duty ( all legal ) Followed by min rest back to BWI. Many many years ago, one could see multi day layovers, decent flying. We are still doing the same flying, unfortunately we are so incredibly thin with crews, and last minute fatigue and sick calls, the days of spending 3 days in Hawaii or Hong Kong are long gone. Min rest, an back to work. HOWEVER, if you are deadheading at the end of your duty day, as described above (Commercial to Stockholm), you are not allowed over a 20 hour duty day, unless you are waiving rest to go home. |

Not conforming with the Atlas contract. Max duty day is 20 hours, extendable to 22, with 4 pilots.

The company doesn’t count when the wake up call goes off- but I do... that’s an hour I’m up, alert and getting ready for work.

Neither does Wells Fargo, GM, Boeing, Joe's plumbing or any other company. Your day starts when you show up for work. Do you think pilots are special?
Our wake up call goes off 3 sometimes 3.5 hours before we block out. The plumber exposing his a$$ crack at my home, probably wakes up :45 minutes before he starts turning wrenches. Being awake for that amount of time before you actually start “working” creates an extremely long day. So, no- not special, just stating facts... |

Not at all... but if we want to go with what your saying- then why did the FAA change the min rest from 8 to 10 they realized pilots were not really getting 8 hours.
Our wake up call goes off 3 sometimes 3.5 hours before we block out. .. And before you think the bunks solve some of these issues, the company can and will schedule you to the legal limit, including long days with a two pilot crew. |

Pretty typical ACMI. In the 18 months I was in ACMI I flew the airplane EXACTLY 14 times. Not especially good for time building.
