Roster |
2 roster options: first is called 'back-to-back'. This involves a rotation followed by a night stop in ORY (paid by company) and then followed by another rotation. Example would be ORY-RUN-ORY night stop ORY-EWR-ORY. This is preferred by commuters as it avoids commuting to Orly often and thus saves time and money. Full time expect two 6-7 day back-to-backs per month.
The other option is the 'random' roster and is preferred by pilots who live in the Paris region as the rotations are spread more evenly across the month.
Part time available (according to coverage) after two years in the company. |
