Top Captain pay is 9,700 Euros/month after taxes. Now, for a little math:
9,700 Euros = $13,190 US Dollars
Top tier French taxation is over 50%
$13,190 US Dollars After taxes = about $26,380 Before taxes (conservatively)
$26,380 X 12 months = $316,560 Annually.
And of course with France's pseudo-socialist state, many things that we pay for are not paid for by Air France pilots. But let's leave that out of the discussion and just simply say that $316,560 Annually sounds like a great floor for our Section 6 based on our direct competitors and JV "partners". I know the NMB will agree.
Here's the link I got the 9,700 euros/month figure: Air France-KLM/ jobs, payscales and entry requirements.
DALPA is doing EVERYTHING in its power to keep truthful comparisons from us. WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT?

Carl;
I dont want to say that DALPA acted somewhat as predicted. I really dont. REALLY!
Thanks for tracking down this link.
The pay referenced is AFTER TAXES. TAKE HOME PAY. There is also 2 months of vacation, free medical, etc.
This is not flamebait either: Air france 777A takes 10 years to achieve. Source: an air france pilot 2 years ago. Scoop would be an Air France 777 captain. Sorry Timbo.
Did this link also make its way to the DALPA board?
