Also, they operate RJ,DH4,DH8. What are the chances of getting RJ with just Minimum time of 750/50?
Thanks
Min guarantee on reserve is 86.3 while lineholder is 92. That is for a 35 day bid cycle, so it makes it hard to compare to another airline. Also, regardless of what aircraft you start in you will make Q200 pay. Right now that is 28.52/hr. So based on that assuming you're on reserve for a whole year ( you wont) 28.52 X 86.3=2461.28 per bid cycle. So 35 days in a cycle/364 days = 10.4 bid cycles per year. 2461.28 X 10.4=25597.28 per year. Now at QX you get paid every other week. so 26 pay cycles / annual min guarantee = 984.51 per paycheck. This of course does not count per diem or flying above min.
As for the RJ question, the current debate (unless you ask rj guys/gals) is that those may be parked. Not sure, but apparently the Airgroup 2nd quarter earnings call on 4/24 will reveal the fate of QX so stay tuned and good luck!
