So how much does a Qwantas 330 FO gross with allowances but without overtime?
Bolty, and why not? They should be given a little extra respect. They are the top of the dung heap as far as pilots go.
But then there're the SR71 pilots. Top of the spy-plane dung heap.
Then there're the guys who fly the (remaining) space shuttles, now there's a hard job to get. They're not exactly expanding the fleet.
I guess the REAL top of the dung heap would be the lucky turd who's test flying the crashed saucer they've got hidden away in Hangar 18 or Area 69 or wherever.
Wonder what he gets paid.......
