Sim guys pull in 160-220k + a year. Depending on CRJ or ERJ. And seniority... LCA’s can push 180-200k a year..

More than that potentially, no 117 limits in the sim. But that's a lot of work and they only fly very rarely.

Currently you are being paid 112.09$ with ta offering 116$ 3.5% real money.
And when inflation was recently flat you would have said??
That 1% you are already counting is fine but the fact is you won’t see $116 until 2022. It’s 2018. Do a little hard math and get back to me.















Yeah, bidding what is available in my base, mostly crummy 200 pairings.
Inflation isn't flat, and is projected to increase, that's one of the reasons the fed keeps raising interest rates.

Or I could choose to make the best of my current situation, work hard, and maximize the rules available to me. Another thing available is spend the extra time trying to get out.







!0 year CA in what base, and exactly how are you making "over" 160K? It would be nearly impossible with many of the pairings in my base crediting at minimum, or half the duty time.

This will be such a significant raise to me that operating under this rate for ONLY the last two months of the year will be better than if I worked the entire year with that 1% pay raise for 2018 that we we’re so upset about NOT getting.
All prospective.

What pay rate would be enough to turn the no voters into yes voters?

There will never be a situation where 100% of the population is a "yes". Someone will always find a reason to complain about something, so all we can do is vote for ourselves.

It’s not the rates that most of us have a problem with.
