Surprising pay breakdowns.

This is the first I've seen of this website. It certainly surprised me on a lot of payscales. Seems that a lot of what I thought was wrong. Interesting. I like how they added last captain upgrade and 401K matching too.

I'm surprised at all the BS that I've heard from all the different sources. The black and white breakdown is not what I expected. In some ways worse, in some ways better. Just surprising to see how different companies stack up.

Remember that while auto workers get paid for eight hours a day, airline pilots are usually guaranteed between 65 and 80 hours a month. That's only 2 or 3 hours a day for a reservist.

Most of the companies' reserve guarantees are listed. Multiply that by the pay rate to get the pay per month.

Yea, I was being facetious...I got about 10 paycheck stubs from XJ a while back.

I did an analysis of my current job v. staying at Mesaba for a career. Figuring on about a 7 year CA upgrade into the SAAB, my current pay stays neck and neck with a career track at Mesaba, almost all the way through max t-prop captain pay.

I factored in that Mesaba pay at 75 hours a month minimums. Although towards the end (we max out at 55K a year at 15 years) I'll make a few dollars a year less than a 75 hour Saab t-prop captain, I'll more than make up for it on the front end (my starting pay was 32,750 v. 16,000 a year at Mesaba).

Plus, we have .25 cents on the dollar, up to 10 percent of your gross in our 401K program. If I manage to swing ATR Captain at my place, I would see a 25% increase in overall pay, so I would surpass Mesaba t-prop captain pay. However, since we're salaried and only fly about 50 hours a month, I doubt I'd be able to match BAC 146 captain pay at Mesaba. But then again, I don't work Sundays or Holidays either.
