Oh, not sure about that.

Plenty don’t make it through and newhires are plenty qualified.

Good luck.

I just did recurrent. We did CRM training at the end of day 2, so they combined us with the current new-hire class of about 20. Just about half the new-hires had retired from major airlines (Delta, AA and United) at age 65. I suspect that will skew the "average flight time" numbers since I suspect those guys have over 20,000 hours.

NetJets is a good deal for those who wish to continue flying after 121 retirement. Retirees who have no aspirations to upgrade are a good deal for NetJets.

I can't imagine how many extended days you'd have to pick up to hit that mark on anything less than about year 8 on the CC76 schedule.

How may ex-wives does someone need to have to continue to work after 65?!? That’s just crazy.

if you are on the CC76 schedule, you'd need to average 7.6 extended days PER MONTH for you to hit 130k.

Maybe by year 10 you can sniff those numbers. So glad they dumped the >40k payscale for FOs.

So what is realistic on the 76 day schedule? They were saying they expect upgrade time to drop dramatically in next two years???

The 76-day is a soul-sucking schedule that you're not going to want to be on very long. You'll work as many as 21 days some months. But if you're a first-year guy on it, you can maybe plan $87-88K. (I typically got around 8% more than base salary in "soft money" [overtime, holiday pay, etc.].) There's no way on earth an FO will come anywhere close to $130K in his first few years.
