Default Re: Why "1000 hrs Turbine PIC" Is Bad For Pilots

I'm excited now!!! 5-6 years for upgrade!!! Hey, at least I can tell people i'm a big time airline pilot!! Maybe my neighbors think I am just smart and putting all my big time airline pilot money into a savings account for my kids or something... yes, that's it, that's why he still rents his home and drives a crappy car... BUT HEY, I'm a big time AIRLINE PILOT. Crackerjack if you ask me. Just like these guys who get all tingly inside when they think they are making money when their flight goes 2.5 minutes over scheduled block. Easy on the sauce there Buffalo Bill, at your BIG TIME airline pilot 3 year FO pay rate of 35$ an hour at your whopping 80 hours a month. What shall I do with all this excesssssss? How bout some math, lets see, the average 9-5er works 120 hours a month so I get paid for 1/2 of that, which makes it... WHAT???? I'm a BIG TIME airline pilot and make about 16.50 an hour when you compare the two!! I think we'll have a good Christmas this year!!
