last question for a total newbie, what’s CRT? Crew reserve/training?
CRT is rig that starts from duty in on day one and ends at duty out on your last day. 4.85 hours per day, prorated to Zulu time. So if you duty in at 1200z on day one, you only get half of the 4.85 for that day. Then you get 4.85 hours of pay per day until your last day, which is also prorated to Z time like on day one.

So your training pay ends up being a couple thousand a month in per diem on top of the 1600?
Affirmative while the COVID MOU is still in effect. It’s doable if you get into training soon.

I’m trying to piece together how CRT relates to your monthly minimum. I’d love if someone could correct where I’m wrong here:

CRT is a daily minimum of guaranteed pay hours while on duty that can be beaten if you happen to fly more than those hours. Typically you take the amount of days you’re on duty, prorate the beginning and end, then multiply it by the rate of 4.85. if your CRT for the month doesn’t add up to your monthly minimum you just get your monthly minimum.

Am I close?

Sounds right to me. You take the highest of CRT, block, or your monthly minimum.

The 767 schedules will 99% of the time be paid at CRT. I believe the same for 737. The 747 and 777 have the potential to have block surpass CRT, but nothing is final until the month is over since we don't have any schedule change pay protection.

Basically, your monthly pay is greatest of min guarantee, total CRT for the month, block time.

Awesome! Thanks for helping me learn.

Last question: knowing now that CRT is pretty typical over min. If I were banking on at least making 60k pre tax my first year, how likely would you say that is?

Pretty much nailed it. Sick calls, recurrent training, and vacation throw a monkey wrench into it though. Sick hours are only used to make you whole to min guarantee. Training and vacation on days ON drop you down to guarantee as well.

It's not impossible. I was a February hire under the old pay rates, and made about $58k pretax my first year. Smart thing is to budget for min guarantee though.

Depends on what fleet you are on. Very doable on the 74.

60k is pretty realistic. That’s about what I made. But again, don’t bank on it happening if you’re making financial decisions so you’re not in a hard place when it doesn’t happen.
