I was extremely surprised that so many overqualified people were trying for a job that only pays $40,000/yr with an estimated 3.5 year upgrade or longer.
I definitely don't think there's a shortage of pilots trying for NetJets.
You won't make $40,000 your first year. There's a LOT of "soft" money at NetJets.
I flew the Reserve schedule during 2006 and finished the year at $61K. (that was my first year at NetJets)
7/7 guys typically make somewhere in the $50's their first year.
