For those living in income tax free states (FL, TX, and others) I was told to expect about $2000 a month take home including perdiem for the first year. I was also told that if you live in base you can pick up and make extra money by bringing your line up to 80-85 hours, but for commuters it is difficult. I am willing to work 90 hours a month, but I was told it would be difficult to do that consistently? Is that all accurate information?
About a year ago I was consistently able to credit 90 hours a month, lately it has been much more difficult. Most decent trips in open time don't last 3 minutes it's like guys are sitting in open time waiting for something to drop. That said once you hold a line 80 hours is very doable.

I went to the FLL one back in November. They finally sent me the online assessment 3 weeks ago. I kept in touch with 3 other guys and none of the heard anything the day I got my email, I applied last May, so I've been waiting while. Unless you already had the long app, and the online assessment done before you went to the job fair. I wouldn't be surprise if you don't hear anything for a couple of months.

It will just get worse as we continue to hire, add more FOs to bases, and continue to run overage on staffing. Many dogs, too few bones to go around.

Haha, no man. People are sitting on open time. Most everyone has the FLICA alerts. People do sit with FLICA open, waiting for stuff to drop.

Exactly. I had a Captain tell me one of his FO's was bragging about a 2500 dollar computer he built just so he could pick up open time faster.
