Any rough ballpark figure as to what a Y1 FO will take in premium flying pay & Per Diems per month?
Thanks in advance!
On reserve at the moment it is easy to credit 85-90 hours @ ~$37/hr (not sure 1rst year pay) and 250+ hours @ 1.90 tax free. $3145 + $475 = $3620/ month on reserve.
It's rare for a lineholder to end up crediting less than 85 hours these days... even trying to work the minimum you will probably get around 85 hours. Lineholders can easily credit 100+ hours if you are trying to make money. I fly with guys crediting 115-120+. Plus 275-300 hours of per diem. $3700 + $520 = $4220/month.
