Rex/Virgin/Qlink ranges 60k-80k. Lower end for newer FOs. From what I hear things are not too crash hot at Virgin currently, it's all based around the 737 going forward.

Don't mean to dampen things but getting that regional gig takes time, let alone going up against other pilots in a fairly small market. I'd plan 10 years CPL to that regional job, with instructing/charter jobs in between.

My first 10 years before that regional job I didn't earn above 40k. Whilst that was many years ago, have a look at awards now, not a lot has changed.
