I'm year 9 on the payscale at SkyWest. Last year I averaged 105 hours of credit a month and still didn't break six figures. I typically picked up 2-3 days of additional flying above my awarded schedule and this included around 50 hours at time and a half last year. This year I'm not picking up anything extra and I won't come close to 100K.

Is it possible to work the system and make 110-120 in the seven year range with a lot of time off. Sure, but it's not typical, and this year will be even harder with the overstaffing. Time and a half has for the most part dissapeared, lines are built to lower credit now, and everyone is looking for stuff to pick up. Put a 5 hour local or standup on the swap board and it disapears in minutes, last year it could be on there for days and may not have been picked up.
