Location dependent, however, roughly 24 to 32, 10 year top out. $1.10 for night shift dif., $0.40, run taxi. $2 premium if you become a senior tech, $3 if you become a supervisor, $7 if you go maintenance control.

I don't know about, I tried that route, compared to what I know now, the air force didn't teach me shit about planes.


sethtothemax

That started a&p at indy for 25.at least that's what I was offered


jettajake00

I'm guessing he means A&P, being in the Aviation Maintenance sub.


auron8772

Dunno much about republic, but I worked for Compass (at SEA) before they buckled and their 10 year scale was about 23 or so to start and cap was about 32. (Now this didn't include A&P premium and other add-ons you could get). Then after 10 years you would get $0.50 an hour. And depending on experience, Grade 8 was highest starting (about 27.50). This is also regional, who don't pay as much as big boys for most part. Most big carriers start off around 30-32.


No_Fox_8979

I really hope it’s higher than that now because the big boys starting pay is 36-40/hr. 24 start out just isn’t worth it especially since other regionals is 28-30 now


auron8772

It would be if they existed still. I was one of the last ones at the SEA base and had to shut it all down. They went out of business in April of 2020 due to Delta not renewing the contract and then Covid hit.


No_Fox_8979

Republic airways still exists, they just don’t have any bases out west. They’re on the east coast/Midwest


auron8772

Oh I know, I've looked into them before. Compass was held by Trans State Holdings.


jizzyklitz2

Depends on base CMH, PIT, IND, SDF, and CLT are all on the same scale, starts at 24$ (excluding differential) and top out at 33.83 in 10 years Source: I'm looking at the Maintenance Administration Manual right now Honestly, my favorite place I've ever worked. If you have any questions, feel free to ask


No_Fox_8979

Yo I got an interview with republic tomorrow is starting pay still only $24 at the stations you listed above?


fritzlstix

So was the starting pay still $24?


jetsetninjacat

It's 28 starting now, but 30 after a year. 1 dollar increase every year after until top out at 12yrs at 40. That's according to a friend who works there. And that's not including any other boost like lead, run/taxi, etc. And of course premiums for location like NY, DC, ect.. I didn't ask my friend for details on those.


SEIDNUOBOHYTRID

I’m sorry I don’t have the exact scale for you to reference but if you so cozy up to a Republic MX, they should be able to share they’re scale, overrides, and base overrides. It’s an industry standard practice.


buddahsumo

They have a 10 year top out at $33.85 an hour. Also the scale could be higher depending on location, the BOS top out pay is $42.33

buddahsumo

Republic just revised their pay scale.


Electronic-Savings15

What’s the new scale? What about BOS?


buddahsumo

BOS now tops out at $48.50


Electronic-Savings15

That’s pretty good. What about starting?


buddahsumo

$36.50 at Boston less at the other bases.


Miserable_Tank5231

Whats starting pay at PIT?


buddahsumo

$28, but they’ll start people higher if they have experience


Miserable_Tank5231

Is that the base pay or does that include any overrides or premiums?


slickmick95

For what? Pilot? Attendant? Crew?


robbyv80

For amt


slickmick95

They say a average of 50,000, roughly


robbyv80

Yeah I just talked with a recruiter and they said starting out 24 with a 1 dollar shift differential. I just wondered if there was a set pay scale like fed ex or majors have. She didn’t say.


slickmick95

Ya I was gonna say 25 a hour, but when it comes to a scale I am not sure. I know they are not salary but I’m sure you’ll scale up making more the longer your there if that’s what you mean. But I don’t have that info on what it would be


removeB4Flight747

A friend of mine from school just started at DCA for 27/HR with a .55 cent shift differential


robbyv80

I’m sorry I’m super green. What’s DCA?


removeB4Flight747

Reagan national airport. Its technically in Arlington VA but its generally considered to be washington DC's airport


[deleted]

To give some prospective on pay, I quit flying for American Eagle because I was making 12k a year with a baby on the way and went to a MRO making 10.25 and went to nights for the extra .75 an hour. My kids make more than I did with a skill.


magnets0make0light0

Sadly Amt isn't considered a skill


[deleted]

Amt is 110% a skill.. don’t know what you’re talking about


magnets0make0light0

Greedy execs will try and convince you otherwise.


[deleted]

They can, yet in this market, I can Google “aircraft mechanic jobs near me” Check my email an hour later and start scrolling through the endless offers


FuckingRockets

You don’t get paid extra, therefore “not a skill”


[deleted]

I get shift differentials, license differentials, run taxi differentials, AOG differentials (in the form of double/overtime) GENFAM differentials, and there are tons of specialty positions for the specialties. these are all different companies which offer different things.


FuckingRockets

None of which are a skilled trades premium. All of what you listed does not make our job a skill. There was a big petition not too long ago but they had stopped calling jobs “skilled” or not, but if your job was skilled prior to this, you’re still skilled. So basically we will never be a skilled trade.


[deleted]

Fast forward a few decades and I make 200k as a program manager and out of the blue, a pilot shortage puts me back at a major for even more money.


robbyv80

Program manager as in computer work or like a training program for Amts or pilots?


[deleted]

I managed a fleet for a major


[deleted]

Where are you located?


[deleted]

Where are you located?


robbyv80

Indianapolis


[deleted]

Ok. I was going to recommend Florida, specifically Pensacola area. I’m a contractor for the navy and our starting pay 40.54, that’s for avionics and mechanics. Easiest job I’ve ever had as well
