A Legacy NB FO in yr 3 makes $11,700/month, before per diem and DC.
A Legacy NB CA in yr 7 makes $19,500/month just for mins or sit reserve. These guys work 10-15 days a month, often 12 hr days.
Any questions?
Retired GO/FO can make quite a bit more than any of that in private-sector executive jobs, but you'd need at least two, maybe three stars to get into the stratospheric realm of compensation. Airlines is certainly easier for what you get.
