Man, just reading through this post pushes me away from flying for the airlines. I'm still building time for my ATP, but sometimes I read posts like these and it really is discouraging....

One less person to compete against. No complaints here.

What is the blended rate for CQFO's?

$63/hour for your time in the left seat. $43/hour for your time in the right seat during your first year.

I know this is a TSA thread so thought I would throw this out there to whoever would know. But does TSA have a "commuter clause"?

How can it actually be unlimited. What happens when you abuse it? Kind of surprised someone hasn't screwed this up for everyone yet.

It used to be 5 times a year, but they chaned it to unlimited. You have to be listed on at least 2 flights an hour apart to make your show time. So, you have to make an effort to use the clause. Great management...very pilot friendly. They just expect everyone to be professionals and do their job.

There's not many regional pilots that can afford to not get paid.

When you treat pilots like adults they act like adults. XJT has the same thing and we don't have issue either. I really think if these companies would go to unlimited sick calls then you would probably see sick time go down. ( SWA does this and their sick call are actually pretty low. )

No you wouldn't, sick calls are some times the only way to get time off with the schedules that regional pilots are forced to fly.


All times are GMT -8. The time now is 11:36 PM.
