CRT is Calculated Rig Time. Think of it as a line rig. Whether your line starts with an operating flight out of your base, a DH from your base or sitting reserve in your base your CRT starts when you go on duty and is paid till when your schedule shows you getting off duty in your base. With the carve outs if you call in sick or have training in the middle of a trip. My block time beat the rig one month last year. So I figured I was paid $48.25 an hour from when the schedule showed me leaving base till when it showed me back.

Like many mentioned. Live by your guarantee, everything else is gravy.
74 - If you must: Using 15.5 days gives you about 75 hrs when using the “you work 17 days” example. All dependent upon when you start and actually finish but it’s a good guesstimate doing “17 day lines.”
I have a 15 day line next month but it’s really 13.8 calculated since I leave late the Day 1 and get back 14 hrs into day 15 so maybe 67 hours using the 4.85. Block is 68ish and guarantee being 62. Being a lifestyle type I normally choose the slim line minimum days away. But sometimes I flex to 17 day lines but realize schedule changes are inevitable.
As highlighted before, impacts include Vaca, Training and per diem being on the plus side is actually being taxed right now though

You get per diem in training and I believe that it's 24 hrs. So that's an additional $1500 per month For 4 months.
So on average $87 x 65 for 8 months is = $5655 x 8 = $45,240
And $3000 per month for 4 months training is $12000.
So it's $57,240 per year and if we include perdiem for those 8 months (around $500 conservatively per month) is $4000.
So yeah you can make $60k+ your first year and if say that the above is quite conservative. You can vx during high season or bid outbase. On the 74 you still get solid covid MOU pay so...
On the 73 though...I can't vouch for it
