greetings.

Just a question to those in the know, a mate of mine told me (this is a rumour network) that crew flying for DHL into Iraq are supposed to get $200 per crew member per landing in Iraq? Can someone confirm this or quash this as a load of BS?

Thanks

Why bring attention to a sensitive topic?.

because im possibly going to fly for them and i wish to take this matter up with my contractor! so is the two hundred dollar danger pay per landing fact or fiction? anyone?

$200 per landing sounds reasonable for someone flying an aircraft with a payload of perhaps $200,000 , or more , only when you put a similiar value on your life. If your life is only worth that , go for it.
