Just contacted Network regarding recruiting and was advised they were looking for preferably F100 experienced pilots. If that is the case will they be looking at getting applicants from Alliance and Skywest? Should that follow will Skywest and Alliance be recruiting soon? Have 2500 hours with 1000 on turbo props.

Why would Alliance or Skywest pilots want to jump hoopies to Network?

Just got an e-mail from a colleague saying that his salary will increase on the 1st July.
I don't know if he is pulling my leg but he reckons that as a recently promoted Capt. his salary will increase to $135,921 and his mate who is a FO will get $87,939.
Also the RDO call out for a Capt. $798 and a FO $518.
I tried to look this up on the FWA website but could not find anything.
Apparently Network is paying more?
What is the chance of getting on to the jet or would I have to start on the F50. Will they consider me with 1000 hours Turbo-prop time?

Think you might be hard pressed to get onto the Jet novice.
If you want a jet job try Alliance. They might loose a couple (Senior FO's to NAA Command) to Network. I'm sure you'll get a look in for V Regional.
I feel one of those unexpected and spurious payrises coming on for F100 drivers! Interesting times for Fokker drivers. NAA QF backing gives them more options.

Who would have guessed 5 years ago an F100 ticket would be so valuable.
Interesting times indeed!

Figures sounds pretty close, not bad productivity deal either.

Compare Dash-8-300 wages here with Skywest F50 Captain. Productivity is built into their wage and is variable by the company. Working on a 70hr month Skywest pilot comes out about $15 grand better off a year on productivity (not considering the difference in base rate)

Productivity (called something else) doesn't kick in until 70hrs here, and its $75 compared with $87 at Skywest, reasonable base rate though unlike above company.
