He was making in the 200k range as an fo with full benefits. Its not China money but its warm and you can breathe.
The web page for Aramco pilot employment lists some pretty hard requirements. 3000 total is a bit hard to believe since I have doubts that there are that many people with degrees wanting to go to saudi. Maybe it is though.
A close family member of mine lived in Saudi in a compound which was not nearly the standard it is today. It was not easy and most people did not stay longer than 1-2 years total.
Does anyone here have any info concerning the 3000 total requirement for an FO?
