I came to work last saturday for an easy trip at 940am.. 80 hours later at 4:15pm tuesday I came home for work. That tuesday I got up at 5:30am in a podunk town. Was at an airport or in an airplane from 5:55am till 4:15pm. Operated 5 flights and was compensated for only the 6:13h I was in the air. This was a "good day"

I was not payed if the plane was not rolling or flying.

its not a part time job... last month I spent 252 hours of the month at work.. i just didn't get compensated unless i was flying.(that was a light month.. had 335 hours last month.)

think about going to work for 4 days, living out of a suitcase for 4 days, at a different cheap hotel every night.. getting up at the crack of dawn...eating airport food.. working in a high vibration and high noise environment... for years...

M21sniper: the copilots sex has ZERO to do with this.... all the girls I fly with are top notch.. Its pretty obvious you have nothing to add to this conversation and know nothing about aviation. go away
