''CAPTAIN
After Training = 69,000 dollars''
About the same as a CX or KA F/O. But without housing/education/travel.
''Is it just me or does this pay seem really low for a 747 pilot? Actually, it seems comical.''
It is low - very low. As for the comedy, you won't be laughing if you try to live in HKG or SIN on that money.
