In the United States,
Gulf of Mexico heavy captains make around $150,000 per annum with benefits for an even on off schedule.
EMS captains make around $120,000 per annum for an even on off schedule.
Corporate pilots for private flight departments can make over $200,000 per annum.
Utility pilots and spray pilots far exceed these numbers. But risk is the price you pay.
When I moonlight for other companies doing utility work within the powerline construction, maintenance or aerial saw niche I charge $1500 per day
