Back when you used to only be able to fly 75hr a month it paid well…. It’s something like 90-92hr while realistically working 18-19 days a month, and no ability to pick up premium or open time. Your pay rate is whatever your seniority can hold. Your schedule gets messed with, a lot

Is marking yourself as a Veteran in the self disclosure not enough? I’m 16 years out of the military and didn’t go back to list that as a job, just marked as veteran. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Work Traits Assessment

Is this assessment pass or fail or is it like the skills test that just shows complete?

CKA pay is based on what group aircraft they can’t hold. Pre-COVID we had Group III pay. Most NW CKA cants hold group VI pay. So when AA eliminated group III pay the majority of NB CKA went to Group II Pay. They also have issues with QOL and scheduling. Just spoke with a LGA CKA the other day, he said we have 6 737 CKA systemwide, down from 30.

What’s Group VI pay? Is that the category that includes the Spruce Moose?
