Guys,

FWIW - I know of two guys in LAX on the 737B that both made over 1800 hours of pay so I have no reason to doubt Tanker1497 on this.

What I do find perplexing is that someone who has bashed guys for selling out QOL for $$$ is very successfully chasing those $$$. :confused:

Exactly, no way you don't sac so QOL to do that.

You haven't a clue how I did it. I may have flown about half of that block. Seniority is good. So is section 1

Pilot shortage, rolling thunder, GS over trip buys. Not that hard really.

Pretty sure the 777 captain could bump me down a spot.

To the rest. 1800hrs. is easily done with LCA trip pulls, followed by GS awards on the footprint of the pulled trip. I had a 290hr. month in May, but most averaged 220-240/month.

You dinged Hockey for using his seniority to get himself a good deal. You are doing the same. What is your point?

Public school here but that's 150 hours credit/month. Please tell the class how you did that.

Jan 148, Feb 194, Mar 135, April 155, May 140, Jun 178, Jul 156, Aug 195, September 111, Oct 129, Nov 144 (probably add 10 more with a 30th spill GS). Should do 120 in Dec with my eyes closed. 150/month. Easy Peezy

I applaud anyone who can do that...not all of us can.
