After 16 years, I would hope that you have decided to fly and upgrade on the jet side, attained an instructor or check airman position, and included all benefits in total compensation. Although all the payscales aren't public knowledge, someone in that position would be north of $150k/year working less than half the year. Not bad for a light-to-midsize jet.

Yes, you can make more money somewhere else, but life ain't bad in 6 figures.

Wouldn't necessarily call it poo-pooing either. Telling it how it is. It's a stepping stone. Over %50 of the FOs who come in quit when they get their 1,500. They run and go off to the airlines or another corporate gig. Now with the direct entry captain program I don't think you will be seeing anyone sticking around.
