Please forgive me if I'm missing something, but is the published payscale grossly inaccurate? According to that payscale, that's about $114,000 more than published at min guarantee, and a 747 FO at 8 years and 100 hrs a month would gross $206,400, which is still $8,600 less than what you make in a narrowbody.
Please help me understand. I would be very happy to make that as a narrowbody FO when I get there! If there is a method to it, please share! Thanks!
