How much did you fly this year? - 2022

[Snuggle]

1/2 way through I swapped bases to being home. So now it’s a long game of golf trying to get the lowest score. (Although I seem to average 500ish a year on RSV)

Long Call or Short Call?
500 is a lot.

 

[Boris Badenov]

Too much. I was promised getting old and fat while accreting boats, ex-wives, and rental properties. No boats, no rental properties, but also no ex-wives, and I'm still not fat, so I suppose it's a wash, technically. Still feels like a bait-and-switch.

 

[JustinS]

About 495 hours of block.

Long Call or Short Call?
500 is a lot.

Yeah, I tend to do premium and VeeDeeAzzes on my days off - preferably hard block ones, I hate DHs. And I spent 1/2 of last year as a lineholder in JFK.

I still haven’t figured out where I’m going to sit. I’ve been doing LCR lately, did some SCR and it was weirdly stressful vs the 14 hr callout even though I’m close enough to the terminal to make a SCR callout.

But, yeah. 500 is a lot. Also, the west coast is a hard nut to crack. Either awful 4 leg 1-days, brutal red eyes, or single and double red eye 4 day trips.

Around 340 hours this year. Way too much flying for a lazy 91 bum like me. Time to hire another pilot...

 

[BEEF SUPREME]

On December 31 I'll be in CUN on one of the systems worst layovers and I will have flown 801:41 in the last 365 days...

Excluding training flights, I did 43 hours doing Air Attack as a retirement side gig over the summer doing fire suppression. Slow fire season in the pacific northwest but I'm grateful for that. There is always next year.

 

[Boots2Wings]

87 block… 50/50 slc-jac / slc-ida…another 700ish in the sim. Pls make the pain stop, I can only do the JFK5BP so many times before a nervous breakdown.

321

Pretty late to the year, but I've been flying about 50 hrs/mo on SCR for the last few. We've definitely been busy up here. I imagine being a bid block holder bumps those numbers up, looking at the lines.

 

[USMCmech]

100 hours mostly in this baby. Including a trip to Oshkosh and discovering how much fun acro can be.

 

[Oxman]

125 hours this year, mostly consisting of 3 airports OCONUS.

You’re doing something wrong.

 

[ZL340B]

711 Block

 

[AA34]

In true WN fashion.. 899 block in 365 to the date today... cries.

Asking as I honestly don’t know… is that because of how y’all’s time is measured or just because you fly your butts off?

444:15 this CY. Credited somewhat more than double.
