My buddy was VERY qualified. He said most of the guys in his class were overseas types with extensive left seat time in heavies as he had.

Are those pay rates on APC correct?

Is there ever a direct correlation between ACMI posted rates and take-home pay? You should know that being at Omni.

There's a pretty strong correlation at Omni, for the most part. It seems that this is not the case at National, but I haven't seen any precise information as to why. How much soft money is there? What are the contractual details?

Pretty sure I asked if the rates were accurate, not if you guys routinely average well over guarantee.
So, are they accurate?
What is the average monthly block hours?
What kind of soft money can the average guy expect?

So what's up with the very-lengthy stops in ANC that National has been making the past month or so? 10 hours, 12 hours, more. Regularly. In both directions. Seems like an extra 12 hours on the journey isn't something customers would prefer...

It doesn't seem like maintenance, and National didn't do this through the height of the PPE Lift, so I'm just curious. Crew availability due to the 3 additional 747-400s? If so, it bodes well for them ramping-up hiring!
