DL mainline rate for a 12 yr EMB-190/CRJ-900 Capt as of 1/15..139.42/hr.

12yr FO rates:

A320..142.96
M88....140.40
717.....133.30

I only posted 12 yr rates cause we're all 14+ yrs in the right seat. DL pilots hired 99-00 were just able to hold CAPT in NYC as of last month.

Yes..15 yr NB FO's would love to be a CRJ CAPT some day..especially if they wouldn't have to commute to NYC from a closed base or are looking at 20+ years in the right seat at a senior base.

I saw some poster's mention how "lifers" make over 120k/yr and have an awesome schedule. Is that true?

How's that for invalidation?
