Added Bonus: If Mesa's behind you, land flaps 35 which slows the ref down to about 88kts. If they go around, captain owes you a cup of coffee. Has to be in the air though, no slow taxiing on the runway....
Only Dasholes should be paid less...
Former YV here.
Flew the Beech and CRJ. Pay should be based on the revenue potential of your a/c(number of seats). Method of propulsion should have no bearing.
