JR of Dallas,

Thank you so much for your answer. I researched a little bit on the net and it seems that 5,000 USD is about right.
The company now looking for Challenger 604 pilots is new and in a country that is just starting with general aviation. The only advantage that I have is that I speak English and they need to use that airplane for international flights. My disadvantage is that I have no jet experience and no type rating which means they would have to provide it. They already have an idea about the salary they will offer which is lower than in the US or Europe. Their intention is to find a pilot that would ask more than a local pilot but can be competitive with regard to a co-pilot from the US or Europe. Again that is their idea for an entry position for a pilot with my profile, the salary increasing every year.

The other question I have is with experience on an aircraft like a Challenger 604 (SIC and PIC), how difficult is it to find work in Europe.

Thank you again

Julien
