Pilot Income?

Question

How much does an Australian pilot get paid per flight, distance, month or year? What Pilot jobs are the best?

Answer 1

Check out willflyforfood. they have all the pay charts for all the major and regional airlines. A first year FO at a regional only make about $20,000. I dont know that converts to.

Pilots also get paid by the hour, and they can fly no more than 100hrs a month or 1000hrs a year. Most airline guarantee 72hrs. Now this is all in America, but I'm sure that Australia isn't much different. Best job in Australia, I would try for Qantas.

Answer 2

Depends what airline you are flying with... lets say 1st year at a regional airline, id think around 40-50 grand a year. when you hit an airline like Virgin Blue or Qantas you'd be looking at 70-80 for first year then ad 5 grand every year. so you could finish up with 150 grand a year.  :-) hope this has helped.
