So one more time
We make 75-100 hours pay in the 16 days we owe them
It is very easy to work 2-4 extra days and make another 40-60 hrs
Now the stars wont line up every month and some dont want ot
I made 275 last year and worked 3 ot trips
A close freind (9yearCA) made close to 500 by working his arse off
Do you see it now?

If you do you are foolish.
^^^^~^ you can't refuse junior man at abx. You can and will be forced to work on your days off! I dare this this guy point where in the cba one can refuse.......he can't period, ACMI is a laugh of the industry. Look elsewhere young grasshopper!

300k is not that much. And you don't have to work your arse off. We all have lots of pilots north of 300/400/500. I would be impressed with 300k and days off with retirement. ACMI sucks!

You won’t get rich on work rules here. The guys that bring in top dollar fly their asses off. We (747) do not sit R1 in the CVG chow hall. We do not do hub turns. We do not only fly at night. If you don’t want to fly overtime you might not break 300 *gasp* but no one is forcing you to fly on your days off.
This isn’t a contract negotiation online, so there’s no need for this victim woe is me mentality here. Boo hoo I had to go to work to make more than the average American can even fathom. Most of the Kalitta guys are actually happy, so dropping a giant deuce on the entire industry is unwarranted.
