When the pilot gets to the restricted Captain portion, they'll get regular 99 pay at $44,000/year. When they become an unrestricted Captain, they'll get regular 99 pay at $44,000/year.
We are currently looking at increasing the pay for the BE99 Captains; nothing set in stone yet, but we see an increase in the near future.
After that, there are defined preferred hour times to get into the BE1900, SA227, and EMB120. With those, of course, come pay raises.
Hopefully that all made sense! Let me know if you have any other questions!
I'm currently a bit over 800 hours, and will probably be closer to 900 by the end of July (have a cross country trip planned). Already meet all the other requirements other than a couple hours of night. Hopefully you guys will be hiring for the ACP at ONT in a couple months! Thanks!
