I notice a lot of people tearing on the starting pay ($19/hr), BUT, the most JR. cap't on the BE1900 is 7 months ago (Nov. 2011) Then, from that point you make $33/hr. Thus! After only 6 or 7 months you're kick'n your buddies butts that didn't wash out at that regional jet carrier. LoL! Seems an okay deal. If only it weren't on a BE-1900's . But, as many have said, that wont last long. And, the Saab is a transport category aircraft. 30+ seats. You can parlay that for a good seat at a better op. from a life-career perspective.
