2013 in Review...How Much Did You Fly?

[Skåning]

It's that time of again as the year comes to a close, what was 2013 like for you guys?

Here's mine:

628 hours
205,226 miles

 

[Shiftace]

Dang.

I started working on the Instrument Rating.
Logged a grand total of..... 20.6 hours.

 

[Malko]

Sadly I only flew about 6 hours MSP-LAS-MSP. But on the other hand I got to spend about 5 hours with the best group of people on the interwebs and share a few drinks....

 

[Autothrust Blue]

690.7 hours; 711 cycles; 410 takeoffs/landings as PF. Includes 121 and 91 time. This'll be more like 730 hours and 750 cycles by the time the end of the year comes around.

What are you guys using to create these charts of where you have flown?

 

[Cal Goat]

327 hours so far with about 40 or so scheduled to go. I was on reserve from January until Oct 1st.

 

[JordanD]

317... So more than half of my total time was flown this year.

 

[middies10]

481hrs busting holes in the frozen north! (Granted, its a warm 1F today!!!)

 

[Ajax]

~500 hours CFIing

 

[Skåning]

What are you guys using to create these charts of where you have flown?

I use the electronic logbook called Logbook Pro. Within that I export my logbook as a .CSV file, open that file in Excel and copy the column for flight route (eg. LAX-SFO). Paste that info here. BOOM!

 

[Cherokee_Cruiser]

Around 919-ish hours for the year.

Around 919-ish hours for the year.

Out of curiosity... Did you do some picking up, or is that normal at VA? Seems like a lot regardless....

I'm going to end the yearly total around 220 for 2013.

 

[ozziecat35]

Approx 75 hours for my CMEL / CSEL and currently working on the CFI.

Picking up. If I leave my schedule as awarded, the normal at VA would be I'd get 70-76 hrs with about 17-19 days off. By adding additional trips, I usually put myself at 88 hrs (with premium pay = 90) and about 15 off in a 30 day month and 16 off in a 31 day month. For December, including incentive and holiday pay, I'm looking at 93.5 hrs with 16 off. I like high credit (90 hrs or more) and get the appropriate block to obtain it. I'm trying to make up for the couple years lack of RJ Captain pay

 

[Screaming_Emu]

Too damn much

 

[derg]

633 hrs, 17 minutes. One more trip left this year.

 

[Cherokee_Cruiser]

Too damn much

Not bad though. That includes 3 weeks of vacation (did not fly over them) and 1 sick call. Unfortunately at my place there isn't a whole lot of soft credit. Incentive pay of 125% for hrs over 80 and 150% holiday pay on Thanks/Christmas/New Yrs.

 

[Cherokee_Cruiser]

633 hrs, 17 minutes. One more trip left this year.

This includes the 7ER to A330 transition? How many weeks was that?

This includes the 7ER to A330 transition? How many weeks was that?

That's January 1 to December 12 and reflects only the actual flight time. Not training time, deadhead, credit, etc.

The 330 IQ (initial qualification) course runs five weeks.
