    Weird never heard that being used for passengers, its mostly pilots who log hours flying.
    I'd say 150 hours.

    It includes all flying hours, you can count double time for any hijackings you might have carried out.

    I was in the south of Portugal few years ago. And just came back from a whistlestop visit to New Zealand 2 weeks ago.

    That alone is about 40 hours

    Yeah normally just pilots. The exact question was 'how many hours would you have approximately logged since you began flying'. It was a follow up question to 'Are you one of the following... frequent flyer, rarely, etc'. Guess with them being in the industry they just got caught up in it's terms.

    Somewhere in the region of at least 150, 2 to 3 rtn flights a year bewteen the UK and ireland. Handfull of internal rtn flights both in ireland and the UK. A few summer holidays and a winter holiday, a rtn flight to n america and internal flights whilst there. All of that over the last 20 years, all of that since the age of 10, was always the ferry before that.

    i calculated about 23 hours:pac:mehh think your all mad seeing the world and what not:(

    Eh.. up until age 7 I have no recollection. I used to fly back and forth from California to Buffalo, New York once a year or so, but I'm not sure if I missed any years. The flight's about 7 hours each way, so somewhere between like.. 21-49 right there.

    After the age of 7, let's see..

    British Columbia and back (Ontario) - 14 hrs, +
    Vancouver Airport to Prince George - 3 hrs +
    Manchester and back (Ontario) - 14 hrs x 2 +
    Ireland (from Ontario) - 7hrs
    = 52ish hrs.

    So.. somewhere between 73 and 101 hrs.
    I could also be forgetting something, I do that a lot.
