What do you suggest pilots out of work do? I’m sure many were happy where they were. I understand things were better pre covid and the company may be taking advantage of the situation, but you have some sort of Utopian viewpoint that does not and cannot exist.
And where do you get the 50% number from? PIC went from 150 to 120 and SIC from 100-85. I’m not great at math but that doesn’t quite seem like 50% to me.

As for 60k, 65k to fly a Gulfstream...what? That is less than a CFI makes in pretty much any major city. Jet Edge cabin attendants make that. Maybe makes sense if you're a pencil whipped 61.55 SIC. I've never heard of a company that requires ARGUS/Wyvern mins (2500, PIC type, 1000 multi) paying that little for a large cabin job.

no I wouldn’t be “shocked”. Before you come on here anymore and preach sunshine and rainbows to others about a company u just started at and clearly know very little about, keep in mind that many of us are making 50% of what we made. The company is refusing to pay us a full wage. Oh and our per diem, a lot of us are owed thousands of that too, did you know that as well sunshine?
you Arnt helping anyone By saying how great it is. If you want to come in and undercut us because you’re a bottom feeder that’s your own deal budd, butt please stop preaching how this is such a great place and the highest paying Gulfstream operator, because it just isn’t and you’re either full of s$&@t or extremely ignorant. Either way you’re not helping anyone.

You guys sound like you’d be miserable no matter what the situation. Have fun!
I am however sympathetic towards your losses. It’s BS not to get expense pay which you are owed. Have you considered getting a lawyer to write a letter to them? I do wish you luck.

Just saw one of their BBJs taxi past my bird at VNY - must be doing a little better than at the start of the Pandemic...
