$149.33 / hour x 110 hours
= $16,426.30 / month x 12 months
= $197,115.60 / year
..... and that is pre-tax.
I totally disagree. 110 hours in a month is almost the equivalent of working 20 days. Just based on duty rig if you work your normal 17 days and volunteer just 3 days, you will be at 109 hours of pay.
By my standards 20 days a month would be a bit excessive but a far cry from "no life outside this job" as you suggest.
We have pilots here who get paid in excess of 200 hours of pay a month. Now those are people who have no life outside this job - not picking on these people, cause they may have very good reasons.
