Controller wages in Spain

Just read an article in El Pais newspaper about how airports with less than 50 landings will get an automated system. The article said that on average Spanish air traffic controllers make three times the salary of their British counterparts.

There are 2,300 controllers in Spain, and in 2008, they earned an average of 338,000 euros for 1600 hours of work. Some 713 controllers earned between 340,000€ and 540,000€. A few even reaching 900,000€ due to extra hours worked.
