Looking to find the "going rate" to fly bizjets in the middle east. Can any ppruner direct me to a website that states the t & g's for crew, e.g., NJME. Copies of posts won't cut it I am afraid, so need something a bit more credible.

I need reasonably firm facts to show a potential boss what he can expect to pay.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Greetings
As far as publications for pay in the ME, I have only seen whats offered for jobs that have been offered. From my experience there, which is from June 07, $5500 to $13,000 per month depending on the equipment. $6000 per month for a sovereign, which is kind of low, but tax free, housing, utilities, car, internet, all payed for.

Depends on what your flying and whether or not you will be commuting, and most important of all, where your based.

PM if you need some more stuff, still have mates working there.:)

There is no easy answer, it will all depend on aircraft type, roster periods, accomodation type, LOCATION etc etc..

I know BBJ crews who were offered $15k per month 2on 1 off. another BBJ crew flying for $6k with 1 month annual vacation and yet another who are seeking their salaries for the last 3 months.....

Thanks for the replies guys.

Had a dig on the net and found what I need also.

Please lets get an update on the pay and conditions in ME, and not let it vanish in T and C.

I am trying to start a movement that offers an alternative to the 11 on 1 off contracts.

Just how many operations are now offering 2 on 1 off or 1 on 1 off.

After all the ME is now getting to be a hardship posting like Moscow.

All input welcome, and lets tie it to the salary aswell.

Yes agreed 1 on 1 off sounds as good a deal as any.

One needs to push now for good conditions while there is a pilot shortage. When the pilot glut returns as it surely will, our opportunity to negotiate will be lost for at least a decade.

However it is a difficult argument for me to put forward if the A/C will only fly once or twice per month.
