First year FO at K4 makes more than a 12 year CA at Southern on 737?
Are these 737’s doing the DHL flying that no one else wanted due to the low rates? |

Doyour research
Here is some good info if you are just looking for a stepping stone airline. Hell might as well be properly compensated and not have any chance of getting stuck on the 737 for three years or until the big boys call. https://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/omni-air-to-set-new-high-for-first-officer-pay-unio-446511/

10% of the southern pilots have left this year. 2 have quit without another job lined up.

Don't waste your life here
Most of southern pilots are looking to leave this place. Because contract negotiations are not going anywhere, the last offer, was ridiculous, atless management doesn't care. And they continue this game for many years. If you are at the regionals stay there, upgrade and continue your career path. If you think coming here to get a 777 type rating is going to help you, go ahead. Sometimes flying a big plane doesn't help you to get a better job. It's greener in other places. Go to Omni or kalitta. They pay better than here.

Southern 1st year FO - $61/hr = $44,652/year 5th year FO - $77/hr = $56,364/year 12th year FO - $95/hr = $69,540/year 3rd year CA - $114/hr = $83,488/year 5th year CA - $122/hr = $89,304/year 12th year CA - $150/hr = $109,800/year Monthly guarantee: 61 hours (737) (and just for laughs:) Southwest 1st year FO - $79/hr = $73,944/year 5th year FO - $155/hr = $145,080/year 12th year FO -$180/hr = $168,480/year 3rd year CA - $233/hr = $218,088/year 5th year CA - $238/hr = $222,768/year 12th year CA - $258/hr = $241,488/year Monthly guarantee: 78 hours And read all about the Southern work rules ... (or lack thereof ...) First year FO $106 Third Year Captain $203 |
Yes. A good comparison.
Southern 1st year FO - $61/hr = $44,652/year Kalitta 1st year FO - $107/hr = $82,176/year Southern 3rd year CA - $114/hr = $83,488/year Kalitta 3rd year CA - $203/hr = $155,904/year Really you could pick just about any airline you'd want to fly for, compare them, and the SIA pay scales would look this bad. |

Third year CA is north of 200k. |
You guys need to be emailing your union leaders and asking them what they are doing about section 744 of this bill.
I’m emailing my union rep and I don’t even fly cargo. We are all in this industry together! https://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/business-aviation/2018-04-19/faa-bill-poised-reach-floor-next-week |
Not a problem at Southern, the robot would cost more than the pilots it replaces.
