Cutover to hourly pay/min guarantee occurs upon completion of your LOE (checkride) and you start getting min guarantee of 75 hours a month at that point. Fwiw, for future training events (transition/upgrade), if you have 15 or more days in a bid period in training, min guarantee is 80 hours. Doesn’t help newhires though. NH pay is rough, but fortunately only lasts 5-6 weeks, then you’ll be making $88x75hr while you wait for/during IOE.

ok, I was just going by what the offer letter said which was $28.57/hr. If its $2000 a month, then we are in class about 70 hours.
Thanks for the info though! Appreciate it.

Not exactly sure how they get the 70 hours though.
I recorded my NH work schedule very accurately. It was 39 days total footprint. 10 days off within that footprint. For the first two weeks, days were 8-9 hours, then the last 3 weeks they were 6 hours. Total hours worked (in class or sim) for the 39 days was 197. Comes to an avg of 6.8 working hours per day worked, with 3/4 days in the footprint being work days.
Hope that helps.
