Every day except one in July I flew as VDO. 92% on the bus in ORD and I credited 150 hours.

So, if the company staffs up properly, it'll create more seats in higher paying cats, like capt and WB fo. Additionally, it won't force the LPA up so high. I haven't seen a PBS award less than 85 hrs in a year. Last month, 90 freakin hours. And I can't just fly 70 hours if i want to, that would mean we'd have reserve coverage allowing me to drop. I've seen the pool display negative before the 24th even hits so how we doing there. If you saw my w2 for the last 2 years, you'd know I'm not the squirrel type. My ideal world would be a 70hr 18 day off pbs award of which we could drop and trade. Go up to 90 if you want, but don't award me 90 from the get go with "no coverage" available to do a thing about it. |
Hatters are gonna say no way . However met a guy last week on the jumpseat flight i was operating.
Capped out 756 FO , July did 260 hours of credit. Said it was his highest ever. 48 ish grand I believe. He explained how he got most of it . Additionally simply good luck and timing being at the right place and right time. Including getting bought off many trips. His gross for last year def exceeds most Airbus Ca’s I fly with. From what I gathered he didn’t have much of a family so he is always hustling. I would guess min days off each month. |

Now he has a new goal to beat. |

260 hrs at capped out pay is a lot more than 48ish. Unless we're talking net and living in california :(

Just swapped out a 15 hour 3 day for a 21:30 hour 4 day with 100% ADD pay. That’s 28 more hours of pay for one extra day of work.
If that’s the way they want to run this business, who am I to complain? |
Can you ppu during the 12th-18th while bids are being ran for FO’s? I know usually CCS puts a freeze on trades. Just wondering if the crew desk will manually process the ppu if you call?
