I fly a Bravo for CS. In the past twelve months, I have flown about 490 hours. How about everybody else?

580 hrs last year; 300 hrs since Jan 1 with a slow start in Jan / Feb. 7/7 schedule, home based.

490 is about what I do now on the Falcon.

In the 8 yrs prior to the Falcon I flew the Ultra and the X. 2 yrs over 700hrs. one yr 360 due to training delays. Every other yr in the 500 and 600 hr range.

2 100 hr months (with a lot of extended days).

Last rotation I flew 20hrs and airlined 28hrs. No Joke!!!

307 last year.....

I did about 650 last year in a lear 45

 

[CA1900]

178 hours in 4 months in a 560XL for NetJets. That extrapolates to 534 in a year, if it stays consistent.

 

[hammer2]

540 last year. 210 so far this year.

 

[HAZ-MAT]

2005 1300 hours
2006 680 hours
2007 (so far) 200 hours

I like this trend! Can you guess when I stopped flying Cargo?

My 1st year at NJA in the WhistlePig (BE400) was a vacation, I think 200 hours. The second year has been a coinflip. Some days I work my rear off, flying 5 legas in a 13.8 hour day, other days I just watch spiders build webs on it.
Overall, even with all the extra stuff we do, it's more pleasure than the airlines were. It's just the showtimes that stink.
I'm waiting for the answer from the XL and Citation X guys...now THERE'S the working class!

Around 610 hours last year in the LR60 so far this year I am at 397 hours.

About 350 hours in the Ultra/Encore fleet. I'll take it! Last tour I took 2 airlines, 2 sedan rides and flew exactly 0 hours.

 

[RNObased]

640 in a year in the G200.

530 in my first 12 months after IOE on the Excel/ XLS at NJA.

Yeah, I'm doing the same. I averaged out 350 hours a year in the Encore over the last two years. This year I am trending slightly lower. It appears that the plane breaks down about once every 5 flights or so. Last tour I flew revenue flight two out of 7 days.
