(First year pay)x75 hour guarantee x 12 months + $15000. Same for second year pay.
[sorry if it was too soon 😜]
But seriously though, there's a lot of negativity toward 9e on here, but it's all coming from a dozen or so very outspoken bitter individuals, some of whom don't even work here anymore. If you're thinking of applying, don't let them get to you. Apply, interview, and make up your own mind.

Third year is standard pay (no bonus), at least for now. Two years is an eternity in this industry and by 2017 any number of things could change here, or wherever you are now. I believe our contract is amendable in 17 or 18, so there's that, but I suspect "market forces" will necessitate something before that. And no, it will not be a shutdown.

And even if you do get the bonuses paid out with all the strings that are attached, Uncle Sam is still going to get 40%. If DAL actually cared about you, they would have rolled those bonuses into the pay scales. But they don't. "It's a Trap!!!"

Yeah. The EtD was a "sure thing' too, right? DAL will renege on this just like they do everything else. Any wholly owned DAL regional will always be an abused spouse.

PS The ONLY people believed in the ETD were management. Pilots from any carrier saw that as a disaster.

Anyways, this be an AWAC thread so back to the subject at hand...good luck to all you guys and hope AAG extends your contract with at least palatable terms.

I think this logic is spot on. It is possible that with upcoming major hiring the majors overall want the regionals to become revolving doors while having their top 20% lifers capped to be 'profitable'. In a perfect world, after this volatility and consolidation among regionals a new FO should never see 4th year pay and most captains would be out before 8 years. That makes a 12/4 pay cap justifiable for management and they will try and sell it to ALL remaining regionals that don't have it...including AWAC at some point in theory.
