I saw some of the basics about Astar on Pilot Central, such as the pay and the monthly guarantee of 69 hours. I have heard that the schedules are good. Could some of you give me a little more information?
1. As an FE do you usually get only 69 hours of pay or is there a lot of overtime available?
2. Is there any incentive pay such as 1.5 over 75 hours?
3. I've heard that the weekend layovers are from Saturday morning until Monday evening so if your layover is in your home city you basically have a couple more days off. Is that true and can you often get your weekend bid?
4. I understand that upgrades may be rather slow. Do you think this will change?
5. Are there other ways to increase your salary such as going into the training department, and if so, is that very difficult to get into?
6.Anything else you can add would be great.
Thanks
