Very sad in a time of huge demand for experienced pilots.
What is even sadder is under the proposed Rex 737 EA, the Company are trying to tie a pilots rate of productivity pay above the overtime threshold to the Load Factor of the jet operation.
So if you did 10 hours overtime last month, you need to wait until the load factors are released to figure out how much you are paid, and for Captains that can vary up to $100 an hour.
A new low in the way pilots are paid in this country?
