notes:

- used average of retirement if % was based on years of service

- jB figures based upon 81 hours/ month (average time of lines in Nov 2003)

2nd year FO: ((56*70) + ((56*1.5)11)/81 = 59.80

12th year FO: ((79*70) + ((79*1.5)11)/81 = 84.36

2nd year CA: ((113*70) + ((113*1.5)11)/81 = 120.67

12th year CA: ((126*70) + ((126*1.5)11)/81 = 134.56

- WN, Transmeridian, and Frontier figures using conversion rate supplied by website

- FedEx 401K rate is $500/year and not included in average

- Monthly guarantee is missing one figure (I screwed up and didn’t write it down)


---------
Anyone who maintains they make industry average or better and doesn't meet this average (I can think of a recent airline that went 'independent', for instance) is simply misinformed.


This took me about 2 hours to compile and I didn't include higher rates for 737NG's and what have you at CO and AA. I would guess with regression analysis and the elimination of statistical outliers, this rate would in fact increase (you lose Delta, but you also lose Allegiant and what have you). I encourage others to verify my results. Though they may not be 100% accurate, they've got to be pretty close.


This info should be made available to all negotiating teams by ALPA, including non-ALPA carriers - we're all brothers in the end, right?
 
1. What does NB mean?

2. tz800ca put together a good webpage with all these comparisons, but it appears to be down now. Maybe you guys could get together and get the page back up again.
