I'll clear it up for you seen as you are struggling to read my earlier posts. We are talking about new hire F.O.'s getting paid a low salary for their first year while they cut their teeth in the 121 world.
I have been there, done that, and have over 6,000 hours and 2 type ratings, so yes I am worth more than that. I have already paid my dues. If I want to earn the kind of money that my qualifications would allow though, I have to go overseas. Otherwise I have to tread water at a regional again until the majors ramp up their hiring.
