Yes. If you pick up an extra 5-8 day trip, which is doable on the 74 right now, you will be making 20-25k every 28 days. Additionally you can sell your vacation back for $10k per week as an F/O, most likely. You get 2 weeks on 2nd year. 1st year pay for me was $70k gross, ymmv.
That would be the case on any fleet, but the schedules and staffing shortage situation on the 74 just make it easier to accomplish.
I am on track to easily double my 8th year Atlas CAPTAIN pay as a 2nd year F/O. Sad.
