It wasn't necessarily your checkride, it was an arbitrary day X days after someone in your classes checkride, at least that's what we're told. Even when they told us, it didn't make sense. Sad part is the guys hired on the US Air side who started in our class got their pay date on the day we started indoc...3 months prior to us. Anyway, that's 12 years of a 3 month delayed pay raise.
