you must be new here.

A recently retired 190 CA showed me their paystub for one month last summer. 65k on the 8th. If you worked here last year. This is very simple.

senior, drop schedule and put VDA on your schedule. Wait for the phone call. Your math should read like this.

12 year Capt. 264/hr * 190% = 501.60

1,200,000 / 501 = 2395.20

2395.20 / 12 = 199.60

Its pretty easy to do this when your doing your days at double time. Or maybe even triple time because you got something bought of your schedule.The people that are doing this literally have no life and only brag about working all the time and how much credit they have. I wish I made 1.2 million. However there is only so many times I can sleep in a hotel a year.

200 hours of credit means getting called out for ten 4-day trips every month, and every one of them at VDA pay. I’d believe 150 in a month with plenty of IROPS, but 200 VDA every month? No way.

Live in Socal, based east coast and vda out of LGB which had been short staffed nearly all 2019. May not explain it all but makes it easier to accomplish.

that won’t be the case this year. And he is an FO not a Captain who had LGB as his blue city. The rules changed late last year he will now get called after all the in base FO’s in LGB. (that is how it’s supposed to work upon full implementation of the CBA) and yes he averaged over 200 credit hours per month at 12 yr 320 FO rates.

I was just explaining how someone was able to do it. Hence why I referred to 2019.
