I would have to give a word of caution if you are thinking about joining ET contracts
Salary wise I personally have had a dispute or two.
Rather large disputes to be honest. The type where my salary was
cut by +R10000 without warning.
Somehow it was blamed on SARS, and it is the LAW. (wada wada)
If you are prepared to put up with that bull, then all the best
And yes I know the tax laws with regards to contract pilots.
I chose the high road.
