We parked Saabs on 9/11 and are slowly bringing them back on line. Word is that we will be adding additional Saabs by years end.

What is the pay rate for 1900/SF-340 capt? I heard $27k year is year one on the 1900. What is year two like? Per diem?

Thanks in advance.

I don't have the exact numbers in front of me, but year two beech cpt is $32.50 and I think the saab is 3 an hour more.

Per Diem is $1.35 an hour and only paid when away from base overnight. We don't have many overnight trips, so you generally only get per diem while in training, or if you spend the night somewhere for weather or a mechanical.

We do get paid for mechanicals now, and you get paid a minimum of 4 hours over guarantee for working on a scheduled day off.
