Easily even with a few easy pickups every once in awhile. Even a second year FO could make close to $100k if they lived in base and hustled (125 credit hours average plus $700 per diem per month on average plus the up to $1200 a year performance bonuses). We have good open time pay rules and almost zero restriction against reserves picking up open time on days off as a reserve pilot, as which it is possible to get 10-12 consecutive days off each month and pickup open time during these days.
