According to ‘Australian Aviation’ magazine April 2011 p.43 under the article Where next for Qantas, written by Geoffrey Thomas, states that Qantas pilots, ‘some of whom earn close to $500 000!’
I would like to understand where this figure came from Geoffrey. What factual document have you seen that indicates this? I would be surprised if even the Chief Pilot or some very senior training Captains receive 2/3rd of this figure.
If this information is correct, provide it please. Otherwise a retraction written in the next issue of Australian Aviation magazine should be forthcoming.
To me, this has discredited this magazine, unless proven otherwise of course! Just remember, lots of people in the industry subscribe to this magazine! Proof please.....waiting!
No wonder jobs are going overseas Geoffrey!
