jungly..
yeah.. thats standard.. when I was working out of NZRO.. I was paid per flying hour.. you know how many flying hours I did per month?
3-4 average...
and that was at about $15 per flying hour..
so yeah $60 a month!!!!
And I had to live off that!!!!
Children in Africa probably get that off World Vision Sponsorship..
But if you want the hours, the start, and the contacts, you have to endure it, cause if you don't the next guy will...
if you look at it the other way with the Tandems, if it is per tandem, the guy will be up and down like a yo-yo all day.. so over the course of a day, he may do up to 10-20 tandems, depending on how well the place is run and marketed.. even better if he's flying a turbine...
so suddenly $4 per tandem might equate to $40 to $80 a day... sure squat in the scheme of things, but enough to live off and still build those hours..
yeah sure it's not right, but it ain't forever either.. it just feels like it!
