There is no simple answer to your question. Every seat has a minimum hourly rate that you start out at. You get 3% "pay raise" for every year you stay out of trouble. A 7 year Lear captain might make less or more than another 7 year Captain depending on how long you stayed in the props and as a Lear SIC. Then throw in training contracts, pr diem, charters and overtime.
If you got hired today and somehow made to Lear PIC in three years and then stayed here for another 4 years your yearly minimum pay would be about 59K. I'd say you could probably tag another (average) 5-8K to that in "overtime".
Unfortunately our pay structure (and I use the term loosely) here at AirNet isn't very good and not an incentive to stay for more than it takes you to build 1000 hours of Lear PIC time and then leave.
