I knew someone would point out “hazard pay”. It is not really common, but if youre gonna split hairs; what about BAQ/BAH?
The pay differential isnt any more significant than shift differentials. There is a difference between flight crew and ground crew in aviation and they get different hours and pay, but the base rate is absolutely the same by rank.
Base pay may be the same, but there are several incentive pays available for various duties. Flight pay, sea pay, jump pay, hazardous duty pay, etc.

I was agreeing with you, just pointing out that there is some variation depending on the duties assigned.
No disagreement implied! I was attempting to ignore the smaller rules to avoid confusion, but I knew someone would point it out. Much love, brother!
No worries man. Text can be hard to interpret tone sometimes. Right back at you friend.
