Default Fractional Flying Up 140% over April

Overall Bizav flying is up substantially but still down 49.2% year over year. Fractionals are doing much better.

My last flight rotation we were very busy. In a 8 day rotation we flew 34 legs and had many 10 in 24 warnings from our scheduling soft wear.

What software do most 135 pilots use to ensure 10 in 24 (and other duty/rest rules) compliance?

There’s a 10 in 24 app in the AppStore that I’ve used in a previous life.

If it’s fractional flying, shouldn’t it be up 14 tenths...

I only see this continuing up as “health” becomes a factor for corporate travel

Default Many airline pilot will apply...

It’ll be interesting to see how many furloughed airline pilots, from all companies, apply to the true fractional companies, the charter and the hybrid. I’m beating many companies won’t take major types cause risk of lost training costs. Regionals is another story. It’s a coin toss for at least the FOs.

Taking pilots from a defunct regional has no risk.
