Average Credit Hours for Line Holders

Can a current line holder flying the E175 chime in here and give me a ballpark estimate of how many credit hours you average a month flying the line?

Thank you in advance!

Actual flight time doesn’t equal pay credit hours.

But it does give an idea of how quickly you will accrue the 950 hours required for upgrade.

Thank you for the quick replies. I was really looking for credit hours for pay purposes. I believe we get paid per credit hour not actual flight hours, correct?

I credit around 100 every month. Fly your schedule and snag some OT and you’ll be set. Trade to fly with a check airman and you’ll be even more set.

His last sentence is a bit cryptic for a new guy. If you are scheduled to fly with a check airman then they will likely displace you from your trip for IOE purposes. They then come in behind it and pick up OT so they drastically increase their pay credit. I have even seen FOs with the list of check airmen.
