NJA is unique, and it has a certain demographic of pilot right by the balls. Guys that were furloughed 15-18 years ago from the airlines and sought refuge at Netjets, are now stuck. Either the airlines didn't call them when they tried to get hired, or they got totally screwed via a merger (TWA guys) and didn't take recall for whatever reason. Now they make ok money, and have lots of seniority which makes them feel safe. But to make the money that their brothers and sisters make at the airlines at a similar DOH and seat, they have to work 19 days a month. Hell there are guys that EXTEND and work more. It is the only way guys say that you can make as much at NJA as the airlines, is working 19 days a month or more.
