So does that mean that corporate pilots earn the same as the corporate passengers they carry in the back??
Comparing pilot pay between different companies/locations/skill requirements is relevant, but comparing your pay to the pay of people in the back who are not in a related work speciality? That just doesn't make sense.
I must pass your idea on to a 747 buddy of mine and see if he can get his pay changed to match the highest earning passenger on the aircraft. You can bet he'd be a very happy man!!
Oh, and if you're and expat working for at least one of the companies in Nigeria, you'll find that you earn about half of what the local pilots earn, not double. But then Nigeria is a force unto its own
