From: DOWNGRADE COMPLETE: Thanks Gary. Thanks SWAPA.
I got my CJO and start 9 January at ATI for my first job in commercial aviation.
So let me tell you instead, how in debt I am from this venture:
Cessna 150 bought before 1 hour of airplane training: $43500
CSEL/CMEL/instruments 141 training: $36400
Petrol: $2604
Insurance: $1300 (should be partially refunded)
Profits from selling plane: $3600
Resume review: $125
Emerald coast interview prep: $400
Raven airline app review (irony not lost on me): $300
Logbook software: $300+ and 3 different ones tried. Still not sure if I like what I got.
Checkrides: $1900
ATP-CTP: $3999
ATP written and study software: $225
Starting off at a home based cargo airline I never dreamed I'd get for my first venture into this profession. Pretty damn priceless.

You can’t blame the guy and we would have done the same thing if we had the opportunity. Personally, as long as the guy is pleasant and has a good attitude, I don’t mind the inexperience.
The least pleasant to fly with are the 10 year FOs that are totally burnt out and checked out. Of course, if the poop hits the fan I think we both know who we’d want sitting across from us.
Sorry for the thread drift.

From: Hopefully the bunk
A little late to the party, but if anyone's interested in some ACMI numbers:
Kalitta 747-400 CA, Year 4/5
185 days on duty, including 10 OT days
173 nights away from home, 14 vacation days used
858 hours flown / 1255 hours credit
Straight credit hours: $311,000
Total cash including per diem & 6% DC: $344,000
It's a long way from the poor house, but there are plenty of reasons attrition is driving all of the movement around here. New Guy a few posts up isn't the only one making the best of this segment of the business to build the resume and the pocketbook until something better calls.
