Cobham 717 Captain pay $160K, QF 737 Captain pay $230K
So let me get this straight,
A Cobham 717 in the new config 12 business, 98 economy, total 110 pax
vs
A Qantas 737-800 12 business, 156 economy, total 168 pax.
As opposed to the flight crew on Cobham where a skipper earns $160k
vs
at Qantas where a Skipper earns $230K.
Always makes me laugh when individuals try to accuse others doing the same job of being overpaid to justify their lot in life.
I would have thought it would be more appropriate to aspire to increase salaries and conditions to a greater level than to be part of the downward spiral that lines managements pockets while taking food off our families tables.
Maybe it's just me that thinks this.
