I rarely did more than 300/mo when I was at the regionals with 14 days off a month.
Now toss in if that 300+ TAFB is a commuter.
My buddies at TK have way, WAY more time at home than the average line slug.
Commuting to the TK job would also skew those metrics.
It's more an apples to oranges comparison really.
I don’t disagree with you, I was just responding to the poster who specifically said he didn’t understand the making less then line argument. PIs only, as they are the only pilots pay capped at this airline, generally trade $ for time at home. I’ve done both PI and line, there are different with each having pluses and minuses.
