I know there are a lot of variables but could anyone comment on what first year FO average monthly pay is working out to?
Thanks!

During months in training and while on reserve, you should plan on making only a guarantee of 75 hours. Doing the math:

In training you will make about 1900 per month, before tax.

While flying and still on reserve, plan on 970 about for the 1st check in the month, and about 1100 for the 2nd check which would also include any per diem.

While a line holder, plan on 1215 bucks for 1st check and about 1700 for your 2nd check in the month. That math is assuming 94 hours credit and about 300 hours time away from base. Maybe more, maybe less(not much less though because we will all probably be flying a lot).

Airline Pilot Central Updates?
 
Is there any way Compass Pilots can change the APC profile to reflect changes from their new contract? Or has that happened already?
This is what I see still:
QUICKTAKE
-Operating exclusively for Delta under the Delta Connection banner
-Monthly schedules bid via PBS
-First 6 years of longevity: 13 days/year vacation
-Deadhead pay is 75% of flight pay
-11 days off/mo minimum for line or reserve
-Compass accepted 20 E175 for American Eagle flying. 1st new delivery expected in the 1st quarter of 2015
-No trip or duty rigs
-Most junior CA DOH January 2012

-FO Pay: 25,36,39,40
-CA Pay: 65,67,69,71

Thanks!

75 hours per month without any overtime or per diem with health insurance (medical, vision and dental) for self and spouse, plus 6% 401(k) turned out to be almost exactly $600 per check. If you're single, don't do insurance and don't contribute to 401k then maybe you could squeeze out $900 checks twice a month.

I averaged about 95 hours per month for my first year. That turned out to be about $1,500 for the overtime + per diem (around 300 hours) for my first check and $600 for the second check.

The first check never changes, I would say a person could reasonably walk with $875 from the advance check and reserve holders or line holders would do $1100 and $1500 respectively.

Your advance check won't ever change whether you get 75 or 95 hours. It is always 37.5 hours.

Thanks for the quick replies!

You are correct, not sure what I was thinking when I typed that.
