Fly 850 hours a year
Be away from base around 3,500 hours a year

NET hourly rate probably ends up being around $6.50/hr.

Dream of being a pilot now because once you become one, you'll dream of "Wishing you had taken the job at Starbucks."
Being an airline pilot is like that hot girl (or guy for the females like you) you lust over so bad. It can turn out to be so lucrative and fulfilling, or can leave you in the dumps with something you can't scratch off. It's a risky business.
