5th year captain.

flight pay for 85 hours 5500
Take home 41900/mth= 502800.
Utilities = 160 000
Total 662800= 181 000.
No, not 200K but include even a little productivity or bonus (I've averaged 5.2 wks) and it's pretty close.
Now, how long has that Fed Ex guy been in Fed Ex to become a 5 year Captain, and how much does the company pay towards his childrens education?
Anyway, read our responses. I totally agree with Sheiky, but don't see why he's posted it in the ME forum with a specific reference to EK. Is he saying the quality of applicant at EK is being eroded? Fact is, because of exactley what he is saying, we are getting great applicants as they are fleeing the appaling pay and conditions else-where (INCLUDING US majors) to come here!
