Hourly rate break even for a 12 year captain at F9 ($270/hr) will be 3rd year widebody FO ($270/hr + $5/hr international override), or 2nd year narrowbody captain ($345/hr).

Min days off on reserve are 12, 13, or 14 depending on the month with min 18 hour callout which is supposed to start in August. Lots of other little financial things on reserve: 1 hour of pay above guarantee for an unused short call conversion (great if you live in base and pick them up), 3 hours of pay above guarantee for a field standby if you get used or not, 2 hours of pay above guarantee for aggressive bidding a trip that start before 10am on your first day on. Then there’s long duty day pay (1:1 for duty days over ten hours), long sit pay. Both of which are not exclusive to reserve. Those are just some of the many “add pay” provisions we have.

Also, pilots taking the first time upgrade get 1 year positive space commuting.
