Just recently, a job was posted in Thailand. They are looking for rated and current 747-200 pilots. They are prepared to pay the whopping great salary of $2500/month. How much time, energy, commitment, heartache, money, and years of your life are you prepared to put into this?
There is a posting somewhere on prune entitled 'why pilots are worth $200 000 a year' or something like that.
I am unemployed right now, and I have 6000 Hrs, with 1400 in Airbus widebodies. I am considered low-time on the international market.
Unfortunately for all of us, most pilots will fly for food. You will not get rich at this. You have to do it because it is your passion, or not do it at all.
Best of luck.
