AFter looking at the statistics of what are the most popular aircraft that Delta pilots fly, the A320 appears to be the number one aircraft flown. If you are thinking about getting additional ratings, this might help you decide which aircraft you would like to be able to fly. The Airbus yearly pay, as a captain, with 6 years experience, is $ 199,555.20 per year. Its the same for an A320 and an A319.
Embrair 190 is paid $132,927.60
MD88/90 $195,982.80
The pay for a Boeing 747, 777 and a Airbus 350(which I am partial to) goes up to $257,657.40 for a 6 year pilot.
This might help you decide what rating you might want to study, test and get approved to fly.
In case your wondering why our president works so hard, His annual pay 7.1 million as 2021.
Delta also made a profit of 4.8 billion in 2019.

Is it too early to ask for a raise Joe?

Interesting information. Thank you for sharing Darrell. Sadly I wish I made 7.1 million

Hmmm how does 0 percent of 0 sound? Since we all are volunteers.
