Starting pay is different from center to center. The ability to move up in management is increasing. This is due to high turnover company wide. First management position is Program Manager.

I go to FSI for training regularly. After talking to the instructors, I think starting pay is around 75K, with an initial signing bonus of 5-10K.

It also depends on the program as well as experience. There are Level 3 or Level 4 Instructors. Level 3 covers turboprops and small jets and Level 4 programs start with mid-sized and up, jets. Right now the lowest I'm hearing on the turboprops is around 70k with a 5-10k signing bonus. Again its all on the experience level too. It may vary either way. Also we have a great bonus program built in, in addition to your base salary. To some this may be low, but what I've heard is that our health benefits are far superior than CAE. No co-insurance/deductibles. How do I know that? Well we have had instructors go over there and end up coming back to FlightSafety, just because of the training environment and politics. Also I have some personal friends over there too. Totally different, nothing negative just different philosophy. I'm a current FSI instructor and am happy to answer any questions.

Are we forgetting the 24 month contract at FSI? Or has that gone away?

What is considered a "pay period" at FlightSafety? One week, two, per month? Thanks ahead of time.
