Ha and I should subsidize your TX2 You get every month when most of us don't? Gotcha.. Luckily there is more of us than you . get a 78 hour line in the future drop down to 60 at $229 an hour and that puts you over $13,000 still with your 18-19 days off. And if you if you decide to "work like an airline pilot" as stated in subsequent post and actually work your 78 hours you'll be at $17,000/month, not to mention that same exact schedule at DOS + 4 will get you $15,000/$20,000 month at $264/hr. And your family will suffer with big increase in retirement? better LTD insurance? and some semblance of scope protection? Thats a head scratcher right there.. But yeah our families should suffer without those protections all while you get that nice TX2 with 19 days off. Gotcha.
