I was in the indoc class ahead of you - and the pay situation was the same with us. Our first paycheck should hit the mailboxes soon; we'll see what it actually amounts to.

The problem in implementing the new contract seems to be a struggle across the board. Pilots were calling to invoke the commuter clause the morning after the TA passed, and the schedulers didn't know what they were talking about!

Under the new contract, as I understand, pilots in training will make $300 a week, as opposed to the $19.02/75HR deal before. What seemed to be the most consistent answer is that pilots who start class before the end of the year get the old training rate, the extra money...

We never heard anything about making minimum guarantee at 23/hr.. they said we'd be on training pay until the start of IOE, at which point we go to 23/hour.

Clear as mud? Same here. Let's just see what the first paycheck does in a couple days and go from there.
