Comes out to roughly 340/day, with housing provided and a shared vehicle. The women in Bethel are perfectly acceptable in the looks department. When you get out into the "real" bush or in the Aleutians it starts to go downhill fast.
I know Renfro's pays something around 500+/day (but no housing provided).
Bering and Hageland are somewhere in that 300-500 range as well. Grant has always been low on the pay.
aspilot2be can probably fill you in with more current information as well as what Ryan is paying.
I worked for Renfro it was basically 223/day whether you fly or not. (6k/month plus 700 for housing) Really awesome guy to work for...fun flying.
There were women in bethel???
