They told us today payroll donates to the pilot fund on the 1st and 15th of the month. I think $22.18 is the starting pay, but that's per flight hour. Not sure how that translates to ground training hourly pay... Training days seem to be about 8 hours a day (plus an hour lunch break). If you got paid $22.18 for 8 hours a day during training, you'd pull in around $5,300 a month. That seems way too high...

My guess is this: We're guaranteed 76 flight hours a month, and at $22.18 that comes out to about $1700/month, or $850/pay period.

No idea about per diem during training (I just assume not, I'm cynical that way), or about Denmark (but how cool would it be to go there?).
