Re: Encore FO
Work 12-18 days, pairings are 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 days. The majority are 3 or 4 day pairings. Depending on how much reserve you get, and how much you fly if you do get reserve blocks, you'll fly anywhere from 40-90 hours a month. Assuming full ESP contribution your take home pay will be $3000-3500/mo. Again.. that is after tax, assuming you contribute 10% of your salary to ESP.
Look, it's f***in Patrick Swayze and Reveen!

So you work like a d__ and are paid peanuts. Remember that the Share Purchase should be used for your RRSP.

Re: Encore FO
I won't for a second deny the working like a dog part insofar as the record over the past 4.5 years goes. But with respect to present day, given the information I provided, what part of that is working like a dog? How many days a month are new FO's at Jazz working? How many legs a day are Dash pilots doing at Jazz?flyer 1492 wrote: ↑Mon Nov 27, 2017 7:07 pm So you work like a d__ and are paid peanuts.

Things aren't perfect; hence joining ALPA. But working like a dog as an FO?
I'll just go ahead and accuse you of rhetoric that is not based on current reality. Please prove me wrong.

Re: Encore FO
Not trying to prove anything of which is better than what. Just pure statistics.
Disclaimer: 2nd full year at Jazz, on dash classic out of yyc but a couple months out of yvr, jan to nov excluding july because i was mostly in sim. Total of 10 to 12 days OT and 2 weeks of vacation used so far...total of 2 full months reserve
30 legs in 11 days Jan
44 in 13 Feb
35 in 9 mar
31 in 11 april
65 in 17 yvr base may
51 in 14 yvr base june
45 in 15 aug

Overall average about 3.18 legs per day. Probably more (legs) if YVR based and/or the Q400.
Like I said just some stats for anyone who may be trying to compare

Re: Encore FO
Just checked the November roster on the Q here at Jazz in YYC. Most junior f/o (not on reserve) is working 16 days a month.
