Or you can pay a Network capt $180k a year for 65 hours a month, then $120 an hour for each hour over 65.
Thats 80 hrs a month for less than $200k a year. How much are you paying a QF 737 skipper to fly those hours?
The overtime rate is really where the pay structure of QF mainline, JQ and Network diverges.
