It happens. Under your plan this FO could not then be the IRP? When does this professional IRP get their 3 landings? I’ll stop here before I get into the discussion of the company replacing the IRP with a multi crew license pilot.


FYI, at most non ACMI airlines, IRO(P) is a biddable position by line monthly and generally goes fairly senior.

It is not all about the money for me. It is all about quality of life. If I didn’t love what I do, I would get a job doing something else. I have been fortunate to be healthy enough, smart enough, and lucky enough, to end up flying airplanes for a living. If you don’t like it why are you doing it? If it is all about the money and you are intelligent enough to be an ATP you can go get an education and work a desk job making a lot more money.

Nice post. Well put.

Perhaps a stupid question that I will get **** for and is probably addressed previously but, as I am on my phone in a ****ty part of the world, I will just ask. Is the 500 jet time firm or will they take my 3000 turbo prop instead? Thank you.

Wow, what a lot of great five star reviewed books. Hopefully, I can find them on Audible too.

Where are you guys getting $19,500 for an individual limit? Everything I research says $18,500 and a $6,000 catch up if over 50.

Geezer- just finished the first few chapters of Millionaire Next door. Thanks for the suggested reading.
