Work is sending 7 of us out to Istanbul, Turkey for about a week to do an engine change on a 757. I have to be at work at 6:00 in morning, catch the 9am flight here in Atlanta and arrive there at what will be 2am Monday here. Once there we will go right to work getting all of our stuff organized for the job at hand. The best part about the trip out there is that it starts on my off day. So I start the day off at time and a half and after 8 hours I go to double time. I'll be on double time before we even get off the ground in NY because of a 4 hour layover.
From NY it's 10 hours to there and then however we can stay on the clock once there. We'll be working 12 hour days until the job is done and then return back home. This is going to be my first time flying outside of the states so I'm really looking forward to this.
It's going to make for a nice paycheck.
I don't know what they have for internet so I don't know if I'll be around but I will post pictures once I get a chance.
