Intl and wide body is not all that--TRUST ME!!
It is very expensive to go and do all the things you want to do INTL. And for 30, 50, 60 k you will not be doing anything....
I would STAY !!!!
One attack and YOU just lost 110k a year and the 30-70K at CAL......
I have to completely scoff everything you just said. Your numbers are in the street. I don't care which way you go, but to get FACTUAL data on pay rates, here are the payscales straight from airlinepilotcentral.com:
CAL widebody F/O @ 5 years: 105/hr
Airtran F/O @ 5 years: 72/hr
CAL widebody captain @ 10 yrs: 183/hr
Airtran captain @ 10 yrs: 144/hr
And on a sidenote, CAL's contract is up for re-negotiation next year and it's going to be pretty nice (maybe not quite to FDX/UPS standards, but I'd imagine pretty close to it). Also, the hiring is going on like gangbusters at CAL and there are 92 aircraft on order with options from Boeing...25 787's and a plethora of NG 737's. Food for thought...
