Not all were that high, but, factor bonus checks in just over 60k was the grand total.
Granted I worked my butt off, but the potential is there if you want it.
For the record 60k is nothing, especially for how much I worked.
That sounds good for half a month, but FAR121 flight time limitations are not going to allow you to keep that going for a year...I dont know Skywest's contract at all, so I'm not going to say you cant make $60k at $35/hr, but even if you flew your 1,000 hours at your overtime rate and throw in per diem you're struggling to make $60k it seems....
