How much does an average crane operator make an hour or year or week?

Question

im trying to become a crane operator and want to know how much they make on average or whatever i can find out about it

Answer 1

That is usually a union job, and after so many years of training and experience (after apprenticeship, etc.) I hear some of them can make as much as $60.00 /hour.  

While learning, training, and being an apprentice, etc. you will probably make between $10 and $20/hour depending on where you live around the country.

Note: this is for the US.  I can't speak for other countries.
