Yes, pay is below standard and very near the bottom end of the industry range. If the comment about guarding the airport is in reference to the ridiculous amount of airport reserve, that’s spot on too. To make that part worse, it’s an 8 hour sit for 4 hours of pay! Oh, and there is no limit on how much airport reserve a pilot can be assigned in a bid period. Overall, the contract is a poorly written joke that the company ignores whenever it suits them. If major changes aren’t addressed in the next contract, C5 will be right back to where they were just a little over a year ago where hiring is concerned!
