pilots pay
Guys don't lose your focus.Get your facts right!First of all 100k is not an ab initio trainees salary it at least 3 fold that figure.133k is what is deducted monthly to service the loan.If you wanna be on Forbes then this is the wrong profession! not because it doesn't pay but your not doing it out of passion.UA405 isn't against the program as a whole,he only feels it's not financially viable on the part of the trainee because it becomes a huge inconvenience during ones fo years as he/she has to part with large sums of money to service the loan.Furthermore,the type rating bond(737 or embraer)puts you in a more precarious position.The fact that a couple of disgruntled elements can't keep their finances in check (who also clearly can't handle the huge responsibility of airline service)shouldn't deter anyone from pursuing their dreams.
