Don't forget new hires. You will have imputed income for all you travel to and from your base. You will also pay for the hotels in bases as well. (Tax)(your not taxed if it's less then 18hrs.?)
My average has been about $200 to $400 a paycheck. So factor that into your budget at 50hrs guarantee @ $79 hr.
You really do not have much control over it. The company can and will sit you for days in R2. (Reserve) So you could have a hefty tax bill if your base has expensive hotels and flights!

EXCO Chair Update:
"First, as most of you know, an arbitration hearing was held last week in Washington, D.C. The company is trying to change Section 26.X. (Picket Lines) of the CBA, by deleting the last sentence of that paragraph. The sentence reads as follows: “Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed, however, to limit the rights of the Union or the Atlas Crewmembers to refuse to cross lawful strike picket lines established by or on behalf of pilots represented by any union lawfully certified or recognized pursuant to the Railway Labor Act.”
Here is what is at stake. If we prevail, things stay the same until the next CBA is negotiated. If the company prevails, then we will have no contractual protections with respect to crossing another carrier’s picket line. A change in the language clearly puts us all on a collision course with this management group. The choice will be: (1) Cross a picket line and be branded a “scab” for the rest of your career (i.e. not hirable at any respectable airline, no jumpseats, etc.); or (2) Refuse to cross the next picket line at the risk of the company taking action against you and your union."
Would suck to be on probation and face the decision of SCABBING or losing your job.
