According to the ALPA insiders, the average line pilot gets 85 hrs of pay each month. If that was actually true, then it wouldn't be lower.

I'm scared we are a little overmanned.

They still say they plan to have half the fleet converted by 1 June. I have not however flown a single non T with the new interior. You would think a few would be hitting the line by now.

Piggy underboob. Sure it's PG-13, but is it the right thing to do?

How is the average line pilot getting 85 hours of pay a month with our rules. ALVs in the 70s, not a whole lot of open time, working 15+ days a month just to hit ALV (at least with the trips out west). Now if we had SWA rules with 6.0 hours min credit/DAY (means only 12 days of work for 72 hours) I could certainly see earning a lot more. Not to mention how do you make up for only 3:15/day of vacation/training. When I was hired I was told you could figure your pay by multiplying your pay rate by 1000 (in other words 1000 credit hours/year). BUT, that was back in the line of time days, trips touching for vacation (one week of vacation could turn in to three weeks off and could then pick up even more money if you wanted by picking up some more trips). Would love to know where the average line pilot is getting 85 hours (certainly not in the LAX base).

There's an ER FO in LAX that got 300+ hours in one month last year. Not helping. Not helping at all.

Anyone know when the new payrates will hit our checks? My pay today was still the old rate.
