Insane
Currently, a North American Freighter F/O on 4th yr pay has a base salary of $81,000. After 3-6 months at this wage (depending on length of intitial training) is able to transfer to the pax fleet on a North American base with a minimum basic salary of $113,160. An increase in pay of $32,160, not to mention the additional 15.5% of the increase. Under the new unified F/O scale the same First Officer will take a pay decrease to what appears to be $79,000. This is completely insane and unfair! It's below the current freighter scale!
