Why do you care about the average?
Some pilots can earn a lot.. some can't. Depends on where you work, for who you work and so on and on and on!
Although if you're looking for a career that is well paid.. I'd go somewhere else..
Exactly the kind of stupid reply we can read on Pprune...... Who doesn't care about how much he will take home?
It is tough at the beginning but whith time (and command) it's a very well paid job.
The average given above is correct. Plus, if you fly for the same airline for, let's say, 10 or 15 years (or more), you'll get seniority bonuses on the top.
And if you're TRE, TRI or base captain, it's even more.
