Electrician/Kitchen fitter. Average 3500-4000 a month currently training modular way to possibly take a pay cut for first flying job .

Must be mental but live the dream hey!

Dogma

Bluepeely, Go for it!! Start now because it is a long tough road to the RHS of a jet with a good airline!

Mind you, I have alway thought that working in the trades did not pay nearly enough to compensate for the dullness of the job. I am only to happy to cough up (normally cash) to some poor bloke to unblock my drains, etc.

Get out while you can

One always thought it a bit common to discuss money in public.

touch&go

arem,

You don't know how lucky you are just worked it out and you would need a £1.6 million fund to give you that level of pension, no wonder BA is a pension fund with wings.

Jet2 737 F/O 1700GBP net last month + 630 bond repayment.

I don't know which Jet2 the F/O earlier in this thread works for, but I work for the one based in the UK.

Wingswinger,

One of my friends works at a bank were it is a dismissible offence to discuss wages.
Talk about keeping the common peasants in their place.

I think open discussion about who gets what and why can only help give us an idea of how badly (or well) off we are.

Regarding Arems BA pension....

Thats is not the case these days. Folk are taking home a fraction of that on the current pension deal, and it will be shrinking further with the present pension deal that is going through at the moment.

OBK!

MYT Airbus S/O avg 2500-3300 net per month.

Homepage...how do you manage 3k/month net with jet2?

Re-Heat

You guys do realise don't you that this beats many city salaries, largely due to reduced tax rate on flying pay/allowances...?!!

Fear not Reheat, Greedy Gordo is doing his level best to get his big, fat, grasping Scottish mits on as much of it as he can.

RSinha

Re-heat,

Good fund managers/banking hierachy and the like in the city can take home 8 figures or more, in a much smaller timescale than it would take a pilot to hit 6.

For money, there is no comparison.

£75000 per year net after tax. AF captain since 2006 ( A320), . But very interesting point by arem, what do you get when retired? will try to find the equivalent in AF ( B744 retired captain and ask). And I am pretty sure it is way less than a BA pilot. Well done Balpa !!!!

Not any more it isn't!

Luc & T&G

Yes I do know how luckly I am - but perhaps not as luckly as the guys who were under 55 when the age 60+ came in - I understand that some are on nearly 250k pa now - pension + salary - good on them I say!!

luc

Arem,

There was no sarcasm in my remarks at all!!!!. That was a genuine well done to Balpa. I wish we could obtain the same...
