2008 hours flown

[Bambam]

Was looking at the logbook and saw that I will fly just under 760 hours for the year. This is a little on the "seagull-ish" side, (gotta throw rocks at them to make them fly) I wanted to start a thread and find out what everyone else flew this year, what company and seat you are in and if you are a line-holder or not.

I am a line holding 320 Capt for JB and flew just under 760 hours in 08.

(Lets not turn this into the annual tasteless "I made this much" W2 fest)

I thought the goal was to get paid for flying you didn't actually do?

[Benhuntn]

Flew with a Capt just the other day that got pulled for a leg. He was at 999 for the yr. I would imagine he will be the high time guy at SWA.

1 month XJT CA and 11 months NWA FO = 400 hours flown roughly 900+ hours credit

 

[GINCHBLASTER]

[Whine Lover]

2008 - 70 hrs. - Bankrupt Airline / Unemployed

2000 - 216 Hrs. Block / 900 Pay ( Not bad as a Lineholder. )


And, my personal bests:

- October and November 2001.

- ZERO Block Hrs. Flown

- 75-80 hrs. Pay

- Again, as a Lineholder with no reserve responsibilities.

Sadly, it was partially due to 9/11, but mostly due to incompetent Management during a Fleet transition.

I'm still not quite sure why the airline no longer exists....Something about expensive gas and a contract for some flying going away is what they are trying to tell everyone.

O.K. Sure....
