Sky Capt,

That is under the old system. The new system mean no pay til sector pilot release (about a week) then roughly 50Euros per block hour. Line Training pilots are cheap so you'll do about 85 Hours a month til your punted in to the big boys pay and you've finished line training. I make that roughly 4250 Euros a month before tax, converted to sterling at current rates gives...

£3,717.73.

Even then, under the old system, I worked for approximately 2 months at £750 a month, then got half sector cheque (tax free), which bumped it up to around £1700 a month after I got my first Line Check.

I am still fairly low houred, but last month I got just over 6000Euros before tax.

Strange, I don't feel like i'm being bent over the desk, like most people tell I am. Still, I could be at easyjet (wait, they stopped taking guys) on £1000 a month for 6 months. Yeah that's much better.
