Those apc numbers are accurate. There are no more pay bumps other than longevity.

Oh, and we have culture
That is confirmed about A Cut Above?!?! (Obviously there isn't a question our rates are incredibly low.) I don't see anything on their website or facebook.

Have also heard this.

Will the epaulet strap be long enough for our 1 foot epaulet though?

Confirmed directly from them to my email inbox. I've been emailing them monthly requesting it. Apparently a lot of other B6 guys have too... Tapered Cirrus shirt (open pocket, 65/35 poly cotton blend) will be offered in blue. Spring 2018 is what they told me

I had cut above at my last airline. Tried each one they had. The sportier blend ones are cool at first but i didn’t like them after a while. I stuck to the full cotton ones. I actually have come to like the VH better than any cut above shirt i had.

The VH shirts are growing on me. The embroidered wing option with them is nice too (I know some aren't a fan). I like the Cut Above open pockets and collar. Will be nice to have another shirt option though, albeit a more expensive one.

Embroidered wings are for guys who wish they were real pilots!

Real pilots wear real wings! Metal wings!
