*I don't know what category you're in, but this seems a fair category to compare with a SWA FO. The numbers obviously get better or worse depending on longevity/category, but I digress....
Let's ASSUME an average of 80 hours/month which is definitely doable at straight pay for a lineholder, without stalking the swap board. ALPA says the "average" Delta pilot averages 87/month, so I'm undershooting by a whole lot here.
The most junior 737 lineholder in ATL is topped out on the payscale. Same with the 320... Would be better to assume 70 hours of pay a month in Mecca for a 5 year guy.
