Endeavor FO here with average take-home pay of just under 5K. But that's 9-10 days off only and hustling my cheeky little arse.

We're paid higher than any other turboprop airline.

Hell we're paid more than most 50-seat RJ guys now.

Base salary, but have to take into account the premium pay at some, even triple premium. Still, a lot better than when I flew the Saab at CJC. We got 21 1rst year and 26 second... It was BS, ha.

Massive increase in pay, IAD pay override, and hotels for cancellations in base.

Except the other airlines pay almost twice as much (but even that isn't enough to live in a place like IAD/JFK/LGA/ORD)

Thats a hard one to tell. in the last few months they lost 4, 4, 6 to Xtra Airways alone. i know a few others that also left to other places. I wasn't in the training department but last think i saw a bid packet i saw 20 people currently training and that was 2 months ago and i didn't hear to many positive from that group. But then again it could be 1 bad eggs.

What other thread? I'd like to read it. What level of candidates are they getting? I would like to join but think I maybe be overqualified for the right seat for two years.
