Oh sorry, you are paid minimum wage during indoc, which is probably lower now that HQ is based in TX instead of CA. No more burdening the company with having to pay 7 bucks an hour... And it isn't as much as I think anyone should be paid Ted, it is what the industry has recognized as standard practice to attract quality canto dates. Any half way decent company starts you at full benefits day 1, full salary day 1.

frmrbuffdrvr, when does the clock start on when you can get medical benefits. Is it 90 days from DOH or the day you pass your checkride?

On Sept 23rd I got an email from the training department stating that all trainees now get 40 units a week. Even if it's 40 units an hour of 7 bucks an hour, it's an improvement of some sorts.
Even with the raise we aren't paid what we deserve. It costs them more in the long run as pilots wind up not respecting the company. A pilot can do all kinds of things to benefit themselves at the company's cost.
Say what you will but for all the effort and time I put in I should be able to at least provide the essentials of food and shelter for my family on AMF pay alone, but unfortunately it isn't so.

That's reality.
