Thanks!
Currently training pay is just a salary of~$5000/month. I won't go into all the gritty details because it will change when the TA passes.
The new setup will be 2:30 of pay for every day from day 1 of indoc until the last day of IOE. This will be paid at the first year pay rate. So if you're in training for a full 30 day month that'll net you 75 hours @ $108.34, or $8125.5/month.
Just an added note: unlike AA, you get your 16% company 401k contribution starting day 1, so an extra $1300 in compensation on top of the $8125 (and it's fully vested).
Another note: unlike UA, a new hire pilot is eligible to earn profit sharing on every dollar earned starting day 1, assuming the company is profitable that year.
