3. Rough estimate of 1st year FO pay?
Thanks!
I'm a May 2017 hire.
1. Looks like someone found it already.
2. I'm not yet holding a line in DTW. Some people right around my seniority are bouncing between reserve and relief (composite) lines in other bases. So 8ish months?
3. I've blocked 180 hours total. Yeah. We don't fly a lot on reserve. I actually went 45 days without flying last fall. So min guarantee is a good estimate of our first year pay.
