Hmm... CA rates top out at 101 after 18 years, FO at 44, 1.55 per diem, mostly unpaid training with housing your own responsibility. Compass pilots are directly replacing routes that used to be flown by DC9-10s and -30s at 135/84 per hour respectively by mainline pilots (post SOC). Doesn't that mean Compass guys are w*************************? Oh wait it's ok since it's an E175 and not an E190. Nevermind....
(For the dim-witted among you, the above is a firmly t-i-c post using, sadly, real facts to point out the hypocrisy here on Flightinfo. Carry on...)
Excuse me while I go search the internet for something more depressing than that statement
Did you take the job?
QOL_is_great:) You are telling me NWA won't pay for hotels during any training? Is that for new hires only or when a pilot must attend required sim training/ground recurrent who is a line holder? Please tell me it's the former.[/QUOTE said:This was an old policy when 2nd year guys made close to six figures. As was stated by Hockeypilot in a previous post, starting with the latest round of hiring (mid 2007) they provide free lodging, 80+ hrs credit per month, per diem the entire time, & positive space travel to and from MSP to your home of record on the weekends. You actually make more $ in training than you do flying the line on 1st year pay.
I was assigned the 747-200 panel in indoc. went thru ground school then was awarded the dc-9 (my 1st choice because i live in base). I was given 6 weeks off waiting on a dc-9 training date (getting the 80 hrs credit the entire time while sitting on my butt). I managed to get 4 1/2 months of training pay as a new hire. This was the best deal going for probationary pilots.
as far as going back to MSP for recurrent, upgrade training etc... They pay for everything!
The original poster stating otherwise was wrong
This should be obvious. No. It was a paycut to go work for them. Same goes for Pinnacle.
This statement drives me crazy, number one reason why people say they turn down a job. WHY DID YOU INTERVIEW!!! For one of you there's a billion that would want the job.
