That's what they're saying. A group from HQ is in the UK now hoping to sign the lease on a new A330-300 from Virgin Atlantic. And then the plan is to purchase a -200 by the end of the year. The pilot bid is out for it, and closes the 26th of Sept. No hiring for the first one, but we'll need to hire probably 20 people to staff the second one. Most new hires would end up on the 767 and/or 330, if not enough current FO's bid the 330.

What do schedules look like on the 767 nowadays? Do you tend to get 17 day trips like Omni and the frieght companies or do you get trips broken into 7 days, etc.?

Airline Pilot Central says the pilot domicile is Rockford. What percentage of pilots live in Rockford vs. commute? Do the widebodies offer home basing?

It also shows the 66 hour guarantee and the $60-70/hr FO pay for flying a freaking 767 or A330 full of people.

Nothing like making under $50,000 a year in 2011 for flying a heavy or less than $100,000 as a captain. I understand this is an opportunity for those of us who are furloughed, but for crying out loud they are represented by ALPA and I'd expect the wages to have changed in the last decade.

Um, no. I made over $80k working basically week on/week off in 2010. And had two weeks of vacation thrown in.

Current pay scale was negotiated in 2008. And a heck of a lot better than what we had.

Does it matter? But to answer your question, yes. deleted reported as my AGI on my 1040.

Not quite to FedEx scales (granted), but quite generous, considering I can buy 55 cent 1 ltr bottles of 14% beer in such lovely places such as FRU!

Good. I get a bit cranky sometimes, but I'm glad you all enjoy it there.
