Flying Careers
I'm going to try and steer my son in the direction of a career in flying and wondered if someone could guide me on few points. Firstly, I read on this site a lot of complaining about the job. Are you really treated like s**t, is it really hours of boredom punctuated by moments of stark terror ? Secondly, what sort of money could he earn, starting as, say, a Junior First Officer for a commuter line, and finishing as a senior long haul Captain with a quality airline. Broad brush figures will be fine. Thanks in advance !
