Current 2nd year FO rate $175.72, in Sept 2018 it becomes $180.99
75 hours a pay period
13 pay periods a year
$180 x 75 x 13 = $175,500
Per Diem, overtime lines above 75, pick-up of open time, Junior Assignments, Late Arrivals, and flying over vacation will take it "north of $200"
The availability of these options is largely random and determined by fleet and domicile.
Someone smarter than me can post an average annual per diem amount, average overtime amount, etc
This simple $175,500 number is just the amount you see in the bank at pay day. Plenty of other compensation is deposited into a pension fund and a Fidelity account. Including those amounts would push pay over $200 without any additional "overtime" time, but you don't see it and spend it on pay day ... FWIW
