It’s a unit of measurement. You use hours, we use mileage. Just multiply hours x rate and it should equal tfp x rate using the same number for guarantee.
Rigs are all in tfp. LTD is based on a % of earnings.
Tfp pays more on the short and long legs. If I fly DEN-COS and gate to gate is 42 min….most pilots get paid 42 min. I’ll get 1 tfp which is around 53 min.
If I fly BWI-DEN and block is 4:10….most pilots get 4:10. I’ll get 4.9. (I say most because I’ve no idea what OAL rigs are).
