Just trying to see realistically what gross pay would be. I've heard stories of FOs making $200k or more, even at $140/hr for a senior FO the math doesn't work out. In any case I'm sure There is plenty I don't know.
Thanks in advance.

1000hrs=83hrs a month avg. equates to roughly 16 days a month. 900hrs=75hrs a month avg, equates to roughly 14 days a month.
Depending on airframe/seniority determines how much you can alter your schedule and/or pickup extra flying to get whatever number you want.
Profit sharing paid 16.xx % last year. it will likely be more this year.
You do get a few hrs a quarter for training CQ stuff, but it doesn't add much.
There are ways to fly double pay trips (green slips), but you have to be on the right fleet, base, seat, time of year, and most importantly..... like everything else, your seniority is the key factor.
Hope that helps.
