Well, back in the good old days, when a dollar was worth something and men were men ... I'm speaking of around 2005-2008, a large cabin biz jet captain working contracts in Middle East, Asia, or Eastern Europe could easily expect $700 to $1,200 per day, plus $100 a day S&T and HOTAC. I still get nostalgic for the good old days!

I used to work with a few guys who would brag about the $350k they made last year.

Even still, the paltry $11,000 a month, one on, one off that is relatively easy to find in places like Dubai still ain't that bad.

... Just what the heck is a HOTAC anyway?
