FO pay is the same for both the Dash and the Saab. Dash Captains currently have a much better pay scale but that may change this fall since the company is working towards a single operating certificate. Dash FO is currently fully staffed and the QOL is nice. Saab FO is still lagging a bit so they fly a bit more. The company is short on Captains in both aircraft thus the DEC hiring. Even with the upgrade time under two years now the flow of Captains to the majors is pretty high. QOL for the captains is pretty bad as they are flying close to ninety hours a month. Home every night is a real deal. Once or twice a year you might RON for a charter that starts early in the morning somewhere other than Anchorage and of course a mechanical or weather might jam you up but those are rare. The Dashes are well maintained … can't speak to the Saab's conditions.
