Starting Pay for Pilots/Copilots
This is from a list on Yahoo! about the best jobs for new graduates. Pilot/Co-pilot was number 6 of 10 on the list of "Jobs That Pay New Grads the Best."
6. Airline Pilots/Copilots and Flight Engineers
Beginning Wage: $54,460
Median Earnings: $110,590
I wonder how many days into ground school the new grads will be before one of them asks the grizzled vet teaching them the CFM, "I think there may have been a mistake. We're supposed to be starting at a little north of $50K a year".
The instructor will probably start laughing so hard that someone will call 911.
The Dash Rocks Forever!

questions: i have 251.344 hours, 19.231 multi - give or take a few hundredeths. i here the job market is really heatin' up brahs. do you think their is a chance of gettin on bored with some jet time? im tired of flying in indian country LOL.
i dont care about money. i would even fly for free. $54 thou is way to much more then i need to crash on. chillaxin with the brahs is a big expanse, but i can cover that with about $18 thou. that covers a lot of PS3 games
also, if I get hired by skiwest or chatakaw (flying a jet they're would be sic): what kind of hedset, sootcase and rollerbored do i need?
oh ya and i needz me a lether bomber jacket with iPod pouch. witch won?
