We have a duty rig at Atlas/Southern which ends up being the main way that we get paid. It works out to about 4.85 hours of pay for 24 hours at work.
So, did you just operate a 15 hour flight? You’ll get paid for 4.85 hours.
Did you work a 14 hour reserve period? You’ll get paid for 4.85 hours.
Did you have a day that was 20 hours of operating/deadheading? You’ll get paid 4.85 hours.
I came to a Atlas from a 135 background. Feel free to PM me with any questions.
