How is the pay?

Dependent on the account. A year ago they were using something like 70k / 80k / 90k for mid-size. Lead Captain being at 90, and the third pilot at 70k.

How is the schedule?

They recently moved to 8 days off a month, however if the owner wants to fly, then that day off gets moved. This is part of the reason why I bailed. Every month I was telling my wife that our plans had to be cancelled because the owner needs the plane.

How many nights are you at home?

Account dependent.

What does a typical duty day look like?
They typically were not bad. I only had a few days that I flew more than 3 legs and were "long."
Answers are above.

What plane and base are you looking at? If its Dulles, shoot me a PM.
