TSA First year pay = $22
Polar First year pay = $57

Flying a 747-400 = Priceless

JohnnyCash,

Its just a dirty little rumor started a while ago.

no one leaves tsa after their 1st year for polar. rj captains making $64 or more per hour are the ones leaving. thats where u have the difference in pay i was referring to.

 

[stillaboo2]

what's the upgrade time like @ Polar (classic or 400 if it matters)? Is it similar at Atlas?

 

[Xfr8dog]

How many planes does Polar/Atlas operate? How many are 200's and how many are 400's?

Tanks.

ahhhh, and there you have a good part of the reason this industry is in such terrible condition for us pilots. A jet Captain flying around making $64 is a shame.

PS- a second year FO at Polar makes around $66 a believe.

 

[b747dogg]

Didn't want to sound like a jerk.
It just bothers me when people talk such crap about Atlas/Polar and they have no idea what they are talking about. They always quote a friend of a friend or someone like that. I've seen clueless postings about no short pilots, the wrong pay scale, 5 day commutes to STN and many other things!!! If you don't know don't post it, just ask it! I'm done, I feel better now!
Cheers!

I made $95,000 my first year as a 747 fo about 6 years ago. So how much are your RJ Captains making?
