How much money do you think a GV instructor pilot makes?

How much do you guys think a Gulfstream V instructor makes working at Flight Safety International?

How much do you guys think a Gulfstream V instructor makes working at Flight Safety International?

For clarification purposes, a Gulfstream V PILOT or simulator operator dude?

 

[jetx.ceo]

Well the instructors we are talking about have the ability to do both, they operate the sim and do ground instruction.

I would hope that it'd be off the scale of your poll...

 

[Okie_Pilot]

Ohhhh. I think I know the answer to this one since I think I read a thread about it last night.

I would guess 16.50hr., or as cheap as you can get one! I want to know why every check has 95hrs of straight and 10 of OT? Riddle me that batman.

+1......would assume it would be comfortably into the lower end of 6 figures, though I could very well be wrong

One meeeelion dollars!

 

[mikecweb]

$1 Bob!

$1 Bob!

Is it me, or does he look like Han Solo after Jaba the Hutt put him in the freezy thing?

 

[flyingbum]

More than me, people be broke these days.

 

[BEEF SUPREME]

Likely full time maybe a bit more than 50k. Part time much less.

 

[loubetti]

Very likely $100K+ if full time. I have a friend who instructs for FSI, and they are well paid there. As he said, "this isn't the airlines here".

Well I'm cheating since I worked for FSA and know people doing this but .... Its not as much as you guys would think someone with those quals would make.

This. I saw someone say $50k a year. That'd be nice, but far from the truth. You could make some contacts there though, and possibly get a type out of it.

POSSIBILITY of a type?

I would hope that you'd have a type in ANY aircraft you're teaching in.

I dunno... we've got new hires with 250 hours and zero time in a JETTT!!!!!1111!! teaching groundschool because they aren't cool enough to fly the line yet.

Got to run before you walk, right?

Teaching ground, sure sure, but doing full motion sim instruction? Heck we even have our ground instructors do FTD's, which seems to work out fine, but I think the junior flight instructor here has 15 years seniority?

With this industry, you never know anymore.
