A first year captain on at Emirates is on 28000 dhs a month at an exchange rate of 2.77 to the AUD works out to be 121300AUD FACT.

A seventh year skipper cannot possibly be on 165000AUD basic!! UNLESS he is a trainer or he has included overtime into that SUM.

A 7th year skipper at this airline will be on 21 percent MORE than a first year skipper (3 PERC per year increment) which means his basic salary to fly wide body aircaraft for a major around the world with 8 days off a month IS 146800AUD FACT i DO NOT know where 168K came from that is CRAP!!

Anyway the price you pay to live in a great first rate country is TAX and your own mortgage!

So the fact still remains that we must be one of the cheapest pilots in international operations in the world at present.!! FACT
