Aviation is so odd. It's like the less you're responsible for, the better the pay depending on how you work the numbers. If an airline pilot were compensated purely on what they're responsible for(cost of the plane and number of passengers), great lakes actually pays the best!
Amflighters starting pay, as z987k pointed out comes to 7.7 flying a chieften. Where as I get 12-15/hour flying a friggen 210/Baron. Yep, pretty dumb.
Both z987k and I worked for a survey company flying cessna 172s that paid 50-100k for 7-12months of work respectively.
You can work those numbers anyway you want to make a point though, just as I did.![]()
Survey oh yeah, pretty decent money to be made to just fly "VFR" all day. Damn, so 3000 piston time Wont get us anywhere? I'm like 2500 with growing log of 60 multi turbine after a month an ATP and you're telling me ill lose out to a 500/50 frozen ATP seedling?! I think there's a tear in my beer...;(
