Someone has been buying/merging with AS for the last 25 years. I wouldn't worry too much about it if I was and AS pilot or wanted to be one.

Anyone know what training pay is like? Is it standard first year pay at 75 hours or something less? Also, how long is training typically? Just trying to plan ahead...

Thanks for your input!

Training is 3 months. You foot the bill for your housing=no hotel provided. Pay is 1st yr pay. Do some looking on this site. There is plenty of info without putting in much effort.

About $53 an hour at 75 hour guarantee while in training. Once released to the line, short call is 79 hour guarantee.

Thank you, I have done quite a bit of reading but had heard some conflicting information recently. Thought I would ask those in the know on here! Thanks again! Looking forward to joining the group!

I've done some searching but can anyone comment on the scope language in the contract if any, and if the pilot group wants to change anything during the next round of negotiations? How about soft pay?

Nice reply james...Who the heck would talk to me - and I don't think I said that. I actually heard it from two AK friends who 'know' people. As far as being asked to leave....Really? That's not how the industry works tool.

Baja.

I heard from a captain who "knows" people at Boeing that we are getting 10 787's....
