5-6 years to recoup your losses and then after that you are continually pulling away. That 5-6 year timeline is with our current contract. That's also assuming you aren't GUM based which lowers the timeline to recoup losses down to the 1-2 year timeframe. Since you can plan on a 30 year career if you get hired at 30 years old, that's about 25 years in increased earning potential over an RJ captain. The RJ captain also has no control over their current flying as it can be farmed out overnight. If taking a hit for 5-6 years but having job security and a retirement account with a couple million dollars more in it isn't worth it, well.....??? It's the easiest decision I ever had to make.
Don't let people like Pocono Pilot mislead you with dishonesty. He was unsucessful in his CAL interview and has been bashing CAL ever since. It's passed beyond the realm of sad to just plain pathetic.
