I flew a lot but ironically never had a premium trip. On pay alone I did $222,000. Add into that 2.5% in incentive pay ($5500) and $26,500 in profit sharing and my gross for the year was $244k. Add 12% for 401k and was at $273k. I wouldn't have seen this at Alaska at the time. Even figuring 10% soft time I would have been looking at around 1050 - 1100 hours credit for the year flying with some training pay, 7.5% incentive pay, and a gross around $238k plus 401k contribution. Or roughly $6000 less than what my VX gross was.
Winter is coming...
So you concede you should be at least placed with a 8 year Captain? lol DOH it is!
Then you assume that an AS guy doesn't make any 'extras'?

Do explain what AS lacked 'at that time' so us youngins can do the math. I'm assuming you are talking 2015 time frame (2007 plus 8 years)?
