Things change. Always expect you will be on FO pay. If/when you upgrade that is just icing on the cake.

Mesa numbers are correct:

Thanks for you feedback. I double checked. The numbers are correct.

Year 1 22 X 75 X 12 months = $19.8 + $2.5 bonus = $22.3K
Year 2 29 X 75 X 12 months = $26.1K
Year 3. 32 X 75 X 12 months = $28.8K

Thanks for the feedback. Numbers are correct. Same formulas as above in the Mesa explanation.

Look at the 10k's! That means less pilots at those regionals will be needed; they are only hiring for a training bubble, which will burst, or attrition which should also make you wonder.
Thanks for your feedback.

The numbers are correct. Directly off of APC. These are FIRST OFFICER pay rates. NOT Captain pay rates. Upgrades are a constantly changing target. Please read the narrative at the top of the chart. Thanks.

Remember also, the tax rate for bonuses is 25%

Thanks for your feedback.

At the end of the year bonuses are taxed at the same rate as other income. It is apples to apples.

I always love the argument: But look how much you will make as a captain when you upgrade, and it will be a quick upgrade hopefully.
I don't understand how people can defend the lowest paid regional. The
only reason pay has gotten better is because pilots are becoming a hot commodity and your trying to reverse that trend by saying its ok to be the
worst. Fast upgrades are coming to all regionals. Why do it for nothing.

If everyone flies fast, you get less than scheduled block, regardless of how slow you fly. Everyone has to fly slow to increase the historical average in order to get better than scheduled block.

At xjt if you fly fast you still get scheduled block. If you fly slow you get paid YOUR actual block, independent of what everyone else flies. That's "true block or better" vs "SGU block or better".

Thanks for taking the time and effort to put this all together.

One thing that is so hard to track that I wish we could have in there, Is the cost of the insurance.

People should consider the cost of their insurance as part of their compensation package. Even if You make an upgrade quicker at one place, you are going backwards if the cost of benefits is so high, a huge percentage of your pay raise is non-existant.
