Some quick pilot maths show a difference of ~$30,000 in earnings over the 2 years seat locked on the 767 at a lower pay rate (based on 75 hours/month).
25 months to go...

Wouldn't count your chickens before they're hatched. Think the only FOs who are averaging 75 a month or more are doing the Afghanistan runs.
Unless you're senior enough to hold IAH which makes the 767 discussion moot.

I understand the money involved but going from near the top of FOs in the 76 to the bottom 25% of HSV or CVG in the 747 will leave its mark in its own way.

I must say that my previous remark was because you struck a nerve while talking about a pay issue that doesn't impact your fleet. If I was out-of-line, please accept my apology. But you must know: I NEVER called you an idiot...I don't do that. Peace.
