Major Ooops
Baseddude :
I have done some math ( or more than one ie maths ) and cannot work out where you get your numbers ( or sums )
If you join on freighter USAB and spend your alotted time on the freighter and then move to a US base on current usab CoS. You will earn $786552.00
If you join on the freighter and transfer to the pax after two years (although if I have read the new DEFO currectly you are required to stay on the freighter until you are within 6 mos of your pax fleet trnsfr date) then transfer to COS 07 you earn $732 228.00
If you join on DEFO 07 after year 8 you have earned $745 776.00
That is $40776 less over eight years or aprox $5000 us per year pay cut.
However once on COS 07 you will now recieve COS 07 USAB Captains pay which is also considerably lower. You will lose another $4000 US per year from your Captain's wage or $31934 after eight years as a Captain.
Please correct me anyone if I have erred ! Still want to sign your pay away ?
Cheers
