If the last raise you get as an FO stops at 4 years, at $30 whatever it is, you're going to have a hell of a time paying bills. I hear mom and dad's basement is nice this time of year.
Obviously you have no idea how SAP and critical coverage pay work here. It is realistic for a second year FO to make 50K/yr. There are many capts making 10-12k per month with 14+ days off. LCAs are making more. The only thing missing was a viable fleet of aircraft. Envoy didn't get offered anything close to what we have. They got a stripped down concessionary version of what we have.

Anyone with half a brain could make good money here.

I will give that. If it is as you say then I would not mind having it for us but we would have to change the name. SAP does not do it for me.

Exactly. Any time guys start bashing a little too hard on PSA in the cockpit, I inform them I'd be making more money if I was flying at PSA than sitting RSV at envoy. Also after reviewing both Compass' and PSA's contract, they have all kinda of niceties in them that we certainly don't have at envoy. Guys are just having trouble looking past the 12/4 pay caps.

12/4 cap is horrible regardless of how you look at it. I was hoping AAG would offer 12/4 cap but also SAP and critical pay to their other wholly owned and you guys will not see it as concessions but obviously AAG would never do that.

Interestingly, today on the FB Whipsaw page, there's a thread on the upcoming Delta contract negotiations and they compare Delta's current pay rates vs. 2004 rates vs. 2004 plus inflation rates. Of particular interest, they only show rates for years 1 - 12!

Also, on this (APC) website, there are only Delta pay rates for years 1 - 12.

All this leads to my question: do Delta pilot have a 12 year pay cap, (like PSA)?

And many will. I'm going too, if we can't pass this TA. Y'all need some cheese foe all the whining you do. Nothing wrong with a 100K Captain and 50K FO in my book.

Pretty sure I know more people at Eagle than you do. From talking to tons of folks here, I can confidently say that you won't have the privilege of sharing a class with many folks from Eagle.

On the good side, at least all the scum will be in one place!

Good, because we obviously would never agree on anything. I hate pessimism. See you at mainline, Cap'n.

You're pretty smart. DAL does have a 12yr pay scale. Difference is, an FO at delta can live on 12yr pay, while a regional pilot struggles.

Not too fair if you ask me.
