Endeavor is all over the board. We have a min day so the lowest you will get is 16 hours. I have had everything from 16 hours to 26 hours on the 200, some 900 trips are closer to 30 hours
|
For the companies that have average trips with 25 hours of credit, does this mean that the average person gets (3) 25 hour trips, and maybe a 2 day?
Does the average pilot really have 17-18 days off every month? |
AWAC is like all the rest it seems. I have seen 15-16 hour 4 day trips and I have seen 26-27 hours. I would say the average is 20. Our average block per duty period is always hovering a little over 5 hours.
My best 4 day got up to about 32 hours after a few weather delays. It was good for credit, but damn that was a long 4 day trip! |

Compass. I would say our average four day is 22 hours, but if you're senior there are lots of very high credit trips. I've had a 16 hour two day, a 22 hour three day, and a 28 hour four day.

I'm not sure how that is even possible with 117.
If you had even a small delay, you would have to time out. Seems irresponsible. |

That would be highly dependent on base. In MSP most of the summer I could barely get 19.5 hours out of a 4 day. June was the worst ever with four 4 days crediting between 18:40 and 19:30. Most of my trips were right around the 4:1 TAFB guarantee.
The good news is most of my trips for August were around 20 hours for a 4 day which are considered good commutable trips in MSP. September is likely to be back down in credit hours. Airfix MSP is the sore spot at SKW. Most other bases have better trips. Not sure how DTW will shake out. |

I'm not. I just can't imagine an airline creating trips like that. You would have to be right at duty limits to have trips that have that many block hours. If you had even an hour delay somewhere along the way, you would time out. It is irresponsible scheduling, for the airlines and the passengers. Airlines don't typically schedule like that.
