RE: New on the forums.
I always do 2 sectors (flights) a day, one there one back. Most of my work is to the Med during summer but at this time of year it’s mostly Canaries, Cyprus, ski flights (France, Switzerland and Austria), Lapland (just before Christmas), Red Sea (for scuba divers) or The Gambia (in west Africa). We even do that last one as a 2 sector day, 6 hours there, 1 hour turn around and 6 hours back.
Like all other workers in all professions we bitch about it but in reality once you know what you are doing it’s one of the easiest ways to make money there is (with the exception of the twice yearly simulator checks!). What do you do for a living?

RE: New on the forums.
How many flights do you do on average per day? You must enjoy it though, knowing that you are flying such a magnificent creation?

Yes but not always so glamorous though. My alarm went off at 3.10am this morning so I could do a ski trip to Lyons. Neighbours probably weren’t too impressed when I accidently set off my motorbike alarm while getting it out the garage!

“…some of you may know my brother, A330Crazy?”
It would be rude to hold that against you… }>
