Hey schesslinger,I dont know about banner towing but ag pilots can make pretty good money. Low end about twenty thous. High end up to one seventy five thousand. The trouble today is that most of the two to four plane operators have cut their fleet size in half, therefore a lot of good experienced pilots are looking for the good seats that sometimes come open. The operators are replacing the smaller planes with bigger turbine powered planes that are capable of doing double or more work. Having said that, it is not impossible to find a job. Just got to get out there and stop and visit with the se guys. I know a lot of guys that started on the ground crew and worked there way up. Me included. Hope this helps, T.C. Forgot, most ag jobs will pay you a % of what your plane grosses. 15% low end 30% highend.
