Min guarantee times hourly. Don’t budget for more than that. I averaged 115 credit a month but that can easily disappear overnight.

 

1st of the month is about $900 (ouch). The 15th is usually around $2000. That’s without picking up anything extra, just holding a line. That is also with health insurance being taken out and 9% of my salary for my 401k being taken out. Hope that helps.

 

It does, thanks!

 

Tried searching for this answer in the thread, unable to locate apologies if I looked over it. Wondering where ZW Pilots wind up going if they decide to move on? I hear a lot go to Southwest, Spirit and United. Is there a mainline or LCC that ZW has a good reputation from hired FO candidates? Any chance someone has the numbers on where ZW Pilots go, that’s more reliable than word of mouth? Be nice if the company put this on their webpage like a lot of other regionals. Thanks.

 

The majority go to those. Southwest (lots of former AWAC pilots there who also do interviews for them) and we have the CPP with United who takes about 3+ a month. But I have seen some go to ACMI carriers, cargo, and other legacies as well.

 

All over the place. I personally know people that went to SWA(2-3), Spirit(3-4), Delta (4-5), JetBlue (1), United (5+). And that is just among the people I’m friends with.

 

Thanks, appreciate the reply's!

 

It's a very small snapshot but, similar to another recent reply, I also personally know 2 Air Wisc pilots who went to JetBlue.

 

Could anyone please provide some current information on training delays in terms of backups and breaks? I realize that this is a moving target, but I was just wondering what the latest is. Thank you.

 

I was looking for any current information about CAE based flying, since it's been several months since I've seen much mentioned of it on the forum (or maybe I'm not looking in the right place).

Here's what I gathered from a few other folks who were kind enough to share the info:
- CAE could be held relatively quickly and sometimes before the completion of training.
- Reserve times also seemed to be relatively short, with a lot of flying.
- Expect 4 day trips, with a very early start on Day 1 and late finish on Day 4.

I was also wondering about the current frequency of junior manning. I have 2 good friends from my Marine Corps flying days who flew with Air Wisconsin for about a year before moving to JetBlue. One of their primary gripes was a lot of JM, but this information is about a year old.

Any updates or corrections would be much appreciated.
