I suggest you try and find a mentor in the industry and have them explain to you that being a professional airline pilot is not climbing out of your 172 you're tired of flying and straight into a brand new E175. Good luck to you.

Irony......filler

Is there some sort of intermediate step? Did I miss it somewhere between the 172 and the CRJ?

The base rate is 700 pay, but taking into account that the new scale applies to vacation, training, and deadheads it will work out to more than current 700 pay.

It's fine to create a new thread for significant news.

Rick our 175 rates should be 900 rates or better.

Its actually between 700 and 900 pay. It should be 900 pay however very few people can fly the 900 everyday for a month.

It is 900 rates. With soft time averaged. 80% 900 rates and 20% 200 rates for soft time is the new 175 rate all the time.
