To be honest, for 2nd and 3rd year FO's, which most of you seem to be, taking home $35-$45K is not that bad, especially if you are single. Most career fields do not pay much more than that to those just starting out. Considering the specialized training that pilots go through, I'd say regional FO salaries could be better, especially first year, but after your first year, its not that bad, especially, again, for a single guy. Right now upgrades are running 4-5 years, but if you can hack the 4-5 years FO pay, which definately seems liveable, I'd say captain pay is more than liveable, according to IFLYASA's salary.
