Normasars,
you may stand corrected.
Captains and F/O's employed under the
National Jet Pilots Collective Agreement are indexed by years of service and thats on all types including your DHC8.
The index is dependant on years of service within the company, not on type or rank. So a if a pilots starts and is promoted to Captain within a couple of years he certainly is on an indexed scale.
If your employed on another contract, NJOS/Jetex/Special Mission then thats a different issue and you can't transfer to the 717 without resigning anyway. Different employment conditions, different seniority etc.
By itself this means nothing, it would be interesting to have other companies in a similar format. There are obviously lots of factors that affect life style that are impossible to indicate via numbers and tables BUT..........
Happy to put other companies on if some one can offer the info.
These numbers are my calculations, there may be some minor errors.
