I still have ~7 weeks until my fed ride, and it would be nice to start making captain pay today, especially as there are new captain awards junior to me whom are now effectively making captain pay whom have not started training.
I know that all pilots before me have dealt with far worse pay/conditions and have had a worse experience at Envoy compared to me. I was simply trying to use the contract/LOAs to my gain.
Thanks.
Well played sir! Never even thought about this scenario. It's completely legit and you should be making CA pay as well as qualify for the LOA.
I kinda wish you would of stated your intentions earlier so more people could take advantage of this.
