I don't see folks going straight to HKG domicile unless they have another internal bid first and can't fill it --- that's why/how they put the Purple Nuggets direct into ANC in 2006.

mmm....I can already count the 4a2b funded dividends

...and just in time for contract negotiations...

...more intel today that the # of new hires next year is a solid 90-100 to start.

Then it all depends on the economy/fleet mix/# of guys who retire in 2011.

Curious how a new hire at 52 an hour will fair in HKG when guys on 4th year pay @ 150 aren't exactly doing so well?

Yo Pine,
I thought the same thing.. but I was schooled on 1st year pay by the "experts" on here that AFTER training pay, you go to whatever 1st year pay your on. ie, widebody FO, you would get widebody FO pay, not the 52.00 per hour I thought was first yr. pay...:rolleyes:

You guys do know we got a new contract in 06, don't you? 1st yr pay hasn't been $52 per hour since the last contract. It's currently $59.39 for all SOs and NB FOs, $61.57 for WB FOs. Not to mention the $7 per hour Intl Override for HKG FOs.

If you're gonna talk s&@t about how bad 1st year pay is, it behooves you to know what the rate actually is.

Heard the plan is for all new hires to go to the back of the 72.

First of all, Why are you tripping! Second I wasn't talking s#*$&t! I was making a comment about what the other guy asked about! And about my ignorance to first yr pay here! That's the problem with this forum, guys like you! I'm done with this friggin' APC:mad:

Ok, thanks for the correction.

HKG at 61 an hour is going to be interesting for a single guy and downright scary for a guy/gal with kids. Hopefully new hires aren't faced with that choice.

JayZ....just consider the source and move on.
