It’s not a windfall by any means, but it’s more than a line pilot could get since it takes you up to 94.5 a month. It’s certainly not double as some have said. I don’t think the issue is pay, because they are doing work for not a lot of extra pay especially when they could sit at home collecting a little less and doing nothing. I think the argument is it’s something not afforded to every pilot, but I could be wrong.

I would have loved to get that plus-up while making 50%. Or is this only for those on full FPL?
I’m not sure how long it has existed, but to my knowledge it started being used about 2 years ago.
