Default Question for Contract Pilots

Hello,

I know as a contract pilot, you can be called out anytime. However, based on your experiences, are there consistently times of the year that are busier than others?

For example, during Christmas and New Years, are there more demand for contract pilots because normal crew members want to get the holidays off?

Thanks.

It's all about your clients, I have had all types. I know some guys that have pretty steady work with 1-2 people, and others that go anywhere and everywhere. Biggest benefit is you can always say "no" but don't expect them to keep calling if you pull that card a lot
