How many NK pilots are there now, 2400? And if so, where does exactly half way (1200?) fall in terms of DOH. Just curious.

Upgrade is going pretty jr because no one wants to be on reserve with our new and improved reserve rules. I know quite a few guys bypassing until they can hold a line, honestly I would too.

In 2.5yrs retirement will be 15% but maybe theres goes to 20% i dont know. If it stay at 16% not much difference there. To make up for drastic pay decrease as a FO for 5yrs i dont think profit sharing does that much. The only thing is i have no clue what profit sharing actually comes out to. I dont want people to chase the shinny carrot. I know like many people that cargo is not the same and pays for lifestyle/rep. To call cargo rates Legacy pay is ridiculous and surprised no one called him out on it lol. A FO leaving makes sense but a CA doesn't and i hope in 2 contracts Fo pay will come close to Legacy so people wont mind being longtime FO's so we can get to +6000 pilots
Don't think profit sharing does much? Seriously? A second year FO at delta gets over 20k a year in profit sharing alone. Captains make 50+ in profit sharing a year.

So you hope in about 15 years we get close to Legacy so we can have long term or lifer FOs in the 2030s and beyond? Do you mean to say something else?

Profit sharing is HUGE and we absolutely need to get it in our next contract if not sooner.

That’s years worth of bypass in some bases.

He said making the switch from a CA slot, profit sharing doesn’t matter as much. And that’s correct, profit sharing would matter little in my decision to leave the left seat for right seat legacy.

So do you guys leave your wife when/if you can score a “hotter” and younger version? Ever heard of the concept of “contentment” in ones life? You can strive for more at Spirit, work to achieve it, and still be content with your life and not be at a Legacy. You guys act like you’re on food stamps. We will make more over these next 3 years and hopefully continue the trend moving forward.

Show of hands, how many loudmouths on here who speak a big game, came to a picketing event?! Figures.

Back to me enjoying my weekends off, holidays off, line holding CA in base, and extra money each month that I simply need to find a place for. Yeah, life sucks! And if this place stays afloat, more of all that time come.
