Answer 3

As a cargo pilot, you will most likely start in the 25K range, as a minimum, and as time and aircraft progress, you could end up making more than 150K.    Its all about the skills you acquire as you progress, and the company that keeps you.

At retirement, you could very well be in the 180K area.
