R2’s, DH, but mostly flying. We are busy, no shortage of flying.

Thanks. I'm curious how you earn more credit hours with R2. If you start an R2 day and then are assigned a trip that day you'll get paid for the R2 day plus the block hours of your flight that day? But if they assign you a trip before your R2 day then you'll only get paid for block hours?

If you credit say 120...my personal best... you probably flew 90+ hours in the aircraft... long international deadheads can rack up some hours... but they arent as common as at some other international cargo carriers. If you are busy.. you probably arent getting R2's either...
We do get paid 1/2 time for commuting to work up to a maximum of 5 (pay out is 2.5) on each end... plus your flying... and an occasional R2 or commercial flight. Let me say it one more time..... there are NOT lots of soft hours to be had here.... if you have a big paycheck you flew your ass off.....

Rinse repeat the LEJ-HKG a few times. Throw in a few R2s for 4 hours credit and you hit 120+ in no time.
