Are those monthly salaries? Seriously, wages will vary, but
a Captain for an airline should earn $40,000-75,000 annually
and a co-pilot about half of that as a starting salary.
Corporate jobs may even pay more but require more hours and
extra certificates such as A&P.

Bag boys make over $20,000 stuffing bread into "paper or
plastic" at the market. Pilots need to learn to insist on a
proper wage, but damn it is so much fun to fly.

LOL, no, yearly. I think I should have clarified that my captain friend
is making 40K a year flying CRJ's for a regional, and he just upgraded
(why can't I remember the airline???). The guys I know making 20K are
just out of school commercial pilots with 300 hours.

And don't get me started on the CFI's I know. I hate that most don't
take instructing seriously enough to demand enough money to make a
career out of it.
