Figure three months on new hire pay, then the rest at 80 hours of first year pay a month
60-70 for your first year. Maybe 7k for profit sharing on top of that. Ignore the high estimates. The big hit is the 3 months for training pay ($4800 a month). You will be stuck on that until the end of IOE.

Most new pilots will have some control over first year earnings. If you're willing to work for it, making over $100k is not unreasonable.

Actually I was making a poor joke about Tier 1. Which being an army guy that meant Delta Force.

Coming from personal experience, I was on training pay for 3 months and flight pay for the rest. For me to earn more than $100K first year I would have to credit more than 95 hours of credit each month. That seems unreasonable to me.
Thanks everyone! Hoping to have to put the financial wrangling to work. Time will tell.
Can you explain a bit more what you are talking about? How are you able to bank the hours for later pay. Anything above the 80hrs reserve guarantee goes into a bank and then you can pull those banked hours in year 2 at the higher pay scale? One simply sacrifices the 1st year money for a larger amount in year two? How many hours can you bank?

Roger. Not saying it's easy, but it can be within reach. Some don't stay on training pay that long, I think it's more than 4,800 now (?), and I'm including anticipated PS.

That would add $2200 according to Pelosi this would be bread crumbs for those striving for $100k.
