He showed us his year to date earnings summary. He has earned just over $70,000 through the month of May. That puts him on track to gross just under $170,000 in his first year. I’m in my thirteenth year at Flexjet. I’m a Phenom captain. I’m on track to gross $145,000. My questions are:
1) What is the override for 8 day rotations?
2) If you are on the 72 schedule, how long is each vacation, including days off on either side?
3) How does PTO work as far as the pilot selecting days off? Can I elect to take two days on either end of a rotation to block 10 or 11 days in a row off?
4) Does the Phenom fly as much as the Latitude?
5) What is the height requirement to size test out of the Phenom?
Thank you!
I can't imagine any way a first year SIC would be able to do that well. No contract bonus for him to have a big one time pay bump. The only way would be to be done with training and fully online by January 1st and on the 76day schedule with the long tour option and extending almost every day he would have been off along with a crazy amount of FDP pay. I'd rate it as a 1% chance for a first year SIC (going into 2nd year) would do that well as a NetJets SIC.
