It is not as bad as Frontseat makes it out to be. He does not work here. Our big iron captains make 182 per hour, if he is making that on a gulfstream, more power to him. My United Airlines experience is this....I bid reserve on the 767. I have flown an average of 37 hours per month for the last 3 months, although I did bust my arse during the summer. We still have work rules on the 757/767/777/747. Basically no work rules on the 737/A320 other than "look back" which will give you 5 hrs per day if you turn a wheel. The wages of course are depressing. I made 169 per hour as a 5 yr 777 FO back in the day (25% more than 5 yr FEDEX widebody FOs make today)!! Now I make 101 per hour as a 10 yr 767 FO....pathetic I know....But I have 10 years invested, I can hold 737 captain (25% raise) if/when I choose to bid it, and it is still fun. So I will stick it out and hope for a better contract down the road. BTW, 24 hour layovers in Hawaii do not blow!!!
