If you find greed, jealousy, or envy starting to crowd into your thoughts in reading this thread...I'd ask to please exercise some personal restraint....

And don't derail this thread...instead feel free to start another separate thread discussing fairness and equity in different career fields vs this one or any other fairness/deserving debate you'd like to have.

This is serving to be an excellent source of data points regarding equipment, domiciles, seat position, qol, compensation that can further educate pilots on top of their union provided industry compensation analysis data.

Hopefully folks can admire the scenarios of folks posting big #/high qol as examples of groups who are raising the bar FOR ALL in this time of pattern bargaining.

Knowledge for the betterment of the profession is never "revolting."

Last two are an interesting comparison. Top of the pay scale (NB for the United guy) working about the average. Roughly the same pay for the same days. SW guy flew more as I would expect. This is a GREAT thread.

It's not about any sort of bragging. It took me 20 years out of high school (yes I also went to college) to get this job. My average pay for those 20 years was very low. From 8K per year in the beginning, to 18K for a few years, then 25K for the middle years, 50K for the next few, to finally topping 100K at around year 17. We earned this pay and it is a drop in the bucket compared to what Airline pay was before deregulation and bankruptcy mania.

Dumb question but is there a single source in FT where you get all this info, including days worked, overnights, credit, etc?

Trust me, for us Atlas guys it is!!😡

Don't know...I just keep very comprehensive records. Good luck.
