This is flame bait right. I guess not. I think you are right. Ask for $58k you are worth it. With 115 hrs right seat, you got enough time to move on to a 747 and ask for $258k. For the record I believe the job with his experience. 1st yr 32k 2nd 38 3rd 45k

Just don't get ahead of yourself, after all you only have 900 hours and haven't seen much yet. I would however start paying attention to detail, your spelling is fricking horrible and paints a negative picture. If you are looking for a job, I do hope your resume and cover letters are error-free. Heck, use spell check if nothing else!

Just a thought...

An FO position in a 12,500 pound airplane is more of a favor than a job. I think if you are getting 25,000 with benifits than you are getting a great deal.

The difference here is that we are trying not to sell out just burn jet fuel.

Just because you fly a jet should not be an excuse to collect foodstamps, junior.

Just curious as to who had flight departments up in the Seattle, WA area? FBOs/charter companies will work too. I'm not really looking for a flying a job, maybe line-service or phone-answering on my days off. Thanks.

Perhaps once you see the light of being a professional, you will not need to clean $hiters for a few extra bucks.

I got upgraded to the 550 w/ just under 1000 also. Probably make around 25+. Since I'm not a F/O in the jet AND captain in a turboprop, and just a jet F/O, I'm not expecting much. Plus w/ my low time, insurance wont allow me to upgrade anyway so although I dont look at it as a FAVOR, I do appreciate where I am and enjoy my JOB.

(FWIW the type has the SIC limitation on it)

Which SIC limitation? SIC required or SIC privileges only... there's a big difference.

SIC Priv Only

SIC Priv Only

Then you might want to double check the fine print in your insurance about needing two type rated pilots. Your type rating does not allow you to be a PIC. It's a paperwork exercise to get around ICAO requirements for international flights. Your insurance might be expecting two pilots with PIC qualified type ratings. If so, and they find out you are only SIC typed they will have grounds to not pay up. Charter outfits have been BSing clients by claiming everyone has a type rating even though a few are the SIC only ones... It's misleading at best, outright lying at worst. It's too bad the FAA didn't see that one coming and just have everyone get the PIC type instead of this SIC only nonsense.

Pay across the board is way to low, until pilots demand more they will not increase. I hire plumbers, carpenters, and labors with a highschool diploma or GED and pay them much more than a highly rated pilot. Why! because I have to.
