As a FO, you will be making $12 per flight hour, with no guaranteed pay per month. Now they did say between 65-100hrs a month is what you should expect, but that still only gives you ~$9,400-$14,400 for the year.
Oh, and that $10,000 training contract (previously was $20,000 but I guess they must had had no responses) is not paid back over time. Training is 3-4 weeks and the price includes nothing. You must pay for your own hotel room for the month and feed yourself as well as transport yourself to training, from training and while at training. And training is not paid either....

No training costs as the FO's seem to be paying for all the crews... but it is still not paid training and you have the expenses of being at training still, but at least you get a $1,500 bonus upon training completion.
Its actually quite annoying how well the Captains are being paid, yet the FO's have to pay to fly and they will probably be doing all the ground work like loading bags and such.
