New Ravn Pay
Ravn just gave their entire pilot group some huge raises! 75 hour gar. & 15k per year retention bonuses. Dash SIC start at 60k base + benefits! Bush got bumped up too. Caravan PIC base pay around 75k for two on two off!
Looks like the bar has been raised a long way!

Any KS pilot that lives in ANC (and is not a PenAir lifer) would be foolish not to consider changing to Ravn.

RAVN is worse than PenAir, in That you'll be an FO for 6 years, getting constantly and unexpectedly bypassed in upgrade from Hageland pilots coming over to RAVN, with the joint seniority list. Would you rather be an FO for 2years at PenAIr, then upgrade, then leave a year later, or be making $54/hr as an FO at RAVN? Easy decision, stay at PenAir, upgrade, then leave.
