First year pay
 
Any new guys willing to share their first year pay at OO? What one can expect to gross monthly before taxes and a breakdown of pay, per diem, bonus etc.. Thanks!

any depends on which base you goto and how long it takes you to hold a line. The pay can vary greatly from minimum credit to most line holders getting 87 to 94 credit hours per month. If you pick extra trips up you can credit well over 100 hours. To answer your question 45k to 70k depending on how hard you want work.

My friend said that on third year FO pay he's pulling in $100k with the new pay rates.

I'd say $45-50K for first year pay ($45/hour) after taxes. That's based on 1-2 months of Reserve.

I made $43K first year after taxes but about the first 6 months of that was on the old pay scale of $37/hour. I was on Reserve for 1.5 months. I don't fly excessively, and averaged probably about 85 credit per month (which is normal and what a typical Lineholder credit value is).

Excuse me for being a newbie but you’re guaranteed 75 no matter what after IOE? Whether on reserve or not? So if I flew a lot and got 80 hours credit I’d only get 5 more hours of pay?

Facepalm...

:rolleyes:

80 - 5 = 75
75 + 5 ... carry the 2 ... = 80
At first glance this seems correct.

Hard to say, but it’d almost certainly be more than 80 hours of pay if you’re on reserve since you broke guarantee. I happened to hit 80 hours on reserve one month and got paid 103 hours:
1) Paid for what you actually flew,
2) Min-day guarantee kicks in where applicable,
3) Min-day pay for those days you didn’t get called (4 in my case that month)
