Default Window open now what?

Window is open again but I didn't make it through the video interview almost 3 months ago. Should I reapply?

If they didn’t say it. It will look better to apply again.

If they said wait 6 months, wait 6 months. If they didn’t, just apply again.

I personally would just apply regardless of the 6 month rule (if there is one). It could be another year before they open another window after this one closes for all we know. They need pilots, and if they want to wait the full 6 months to call you again, let them make that decision. At least you’ll have your application on file, and they like to see that you’re interested by applying in every window. In my opinion you’re not going to get dinged for not waiting the full 6 months.

What is the best way to determine the most realistic/conservative figure on first and second year earnings? I understand there are many variables (type & base for starters). Probably a different thread out there already, but I missed it. Any insight greatly appreciated.

Hourly rate x 1000 is easy to do in a regular year (not counting per diem and 401k). I worked as little as possible and still did it. Figure 2 months of training pay first year at $2k each plus 10 months of 75 hours x $88 first year and $120 second year. But you’ll likely be a line holder at some point on year 2 and make 85-90 hours a month.

$80k/$120k is prob a conservative number for low effort. I know guys working VDAs who are making a lot more than that though.

What Beat Navy said, but factor in when you start.

Start in June, you’ll make 2 months of training pay at $2K. Once you finish in August, you’ll be at the $88.14 mark. 75 X $88.14 X 5 = $33K plus a bit for M&IE, night over ride, int’l M&IE, etc. Added to what you made prior to June.

Starting 1 May, the first year rate is $88.14, 2nd year 320 is $$119.54 and 2nd year 190 is $98.68. May 2020, 1st year rate is $89.90, 2nd year is $121.92 on the 320, and $100.66 on the 190. As the navy guy said, multiply times 1000 to get a rough estimate.

190 will hold a line and potentially earn more inside 3-4 months. 320 you may be on RSV as long as a year, though those times should be dropping soon due to the 144 slots that have opened since 1 Jan.
