....pretty much all of it dual given for my first entire year as a flight instructor. 370 to go till 135 mins!

Another way to look at it...
  • 18 nights Choice Hotels
  • 1 night Radisson
  • 10 nights Hilton Honors
  • 12 nights Marriott Rewards
  • 20 nights Priority Club (Holiday Inn brands)
  • 3 nights off-brands
= 64 nights away from home. (Averaging around 5.3 nights per month or 4.6 if you take recurrent training out of the mix)

About 210 days on the road. Equates to being paid roughly $6.15 per hour spent away from home. Others have it worse, and better, I'm sure. Just another break down for us "over paid pilots."

Edit: I also had a month and a half off for my newborn. Without that, I would have been around $5.55 an hour spent away from home.

One of my least productive years so far. I barley broke 70 hours, but I was paid for about 1/3 of it which was not the case in previous years, so you win some you lose some I suppose..

I will get us started.

I have one more trip this year projected at 8.5 hours block so I have added it for the sake of completion. After that trip I will have flown ~ 367.6 hours this year. (vs 358.5 last year)

How do you get GC Mapper to plot your flights like that. I've got logbook pro, and have been thinking that this sort of feature would be cool.
 
Somewhere around 700 hours. Maybe 800. I dunno. I stopped counting because I'm trying not to base my career on positions where flight time matters anymore.

Besides, it felt like 2 hours, because I flew the same city pair 80+ times/month for six months, then moved to another city pair and flew it 70+ times/month for six months. Most boring freaking year of my career.

Next year I'll probably fly less and make more money. Jury's still out as to if this is a good thing or not.

I exported LBP to excel then copied the route column into Word. Since you have to have dashes between the identifiers in GC mapper I used the "replace" function in Word to replace all spaces with dashes. Then copy and past into the box in GC Mapper and you're done.
