Hope that helps. All after taxes.
I would count on this. More on if you can pick up open time. If you live in base you can pick up 1 day trips even on reserve. As long as it doesn't mess with your 30 hrs off every 7 days of duty. Thats been my main limiter on reserve. Of course I don't fly much on reserve. So working the odd 1 day to get above guarantee is pretty mellow. I also picked up the 7500$ bonus for being previously typed.
