Another way to look at it-----------how many hours a week are you airborne,loading etc.
The truckies usually look through red eyes for 60-80 hours a week.
Son gave up choppers and bought a delivery ute.More than doubled his wages but puts in 50-60 hours a week in city traffic.And me ,i get 120g a year driving a dozer but do twice as many hours as a pilot is allowed
