Side comment - for those including your per diem.... can you at least separate that out? Per diem is not pay.

Per Diem: "a daily allowance, usually for living expenses while traveling in connection with one's work or being employed at a distance from one's home"

I knew of a few that made that before they got rid of them too. your right mostly Check airmen or those who worked in the sim training. possible but rare , but needed very high seniority to make anywhere near that much.

I saw 4 or 5 of them sitting on the ramp in Springfield Missouri the other day. Im guessing i've ridden in majority of those jumpseats.

J.

I'm going home in two days, 4 sectors Monday early (in just a few hours, I'm Zulu plus one), and 4 sectors Tues. Leave Tues night.

I work 56 days on, 28 days off. Salaried at $5500 per month, so easy to figure the annual salary. Per diem is paid in cash at $70 per night. Flights back home and returning to work are paid for. All food / non-alcohol drinks and housing is paid on my 56 days at work. Company has a fleet of vans to shuttle us around.

I stay in a pretty nice hotel, with good food. Not sure how to compare the hotel to a US place.... it's definitely different. Some of the overnight hotels in places like Johannesburg and Dakar are actually quite nice. Overnight in Abuja is a Sheraton... I fill my fat face with a wonderful steak with béarnaise sauce almost every time I'm there, and charge it to the company. A nice glass of Pinot Noir washes it all down.

We're supposed to be moving to a compound. I saw it for the first time tonight, and it's a long way from complete. Maybe another year. But we'll have private suites that we can live in permanently. Not sure if that will be better or not. I guess it depends on how good the food is.

Overall, Lagos is a corrupt, polluted city with horrible traffic.

I hope to upgrade in the coming year, and my salary then will be $8000mo / $96,000yr. One senior CRJ FO and three CRJ CA's just got picked up on the A330, and one of our CRJ CA's is now right seat on the A340. B777's set to arrive in a year. Have B737-300, -700, -700NG, and -800NG. Also, two Dash-8-Q400's.

Otherwise he's full of it. Six digits are possible as a RJ CA, but I seriously doubt he could do it at Jokestream airlines flying a Brasilia. Even if he is an IOE guy.
I'm guessing some details were probably left out. More than likely, the guy was probably a training center/management pilot that just happens to fly the line a lot. In which case, he was probably on a management pilot compensation package. Not what a regular line puke makes.

True, but he's a legacy/widebody FO. Nothing depressing about it. Regional salaries=depressing.

However, if you were to compare the pre-9/11 DAL FO rate for Acl's seat/longevity to his current, well, kinda depressing.
