Even though theres not a lot of guys left that could do it well, I'd be surprised if the pay got to much more than £225 per day. Citation Guys were up to £400 last summer, probably £325 - £350 nowadays when there is any work on and its not an expensive rating to keep current.

I have flown both dont expect more than £150-£200 per day.£200 the absolute tops if your lucky. Piston twins rates are pilots shooting themselves in the foot.

Too many pilots trying to build twin hours by offering to fly for literally nothing and owners who dont want to pay.

One saviour is insurance restrictions without which you would be lucky to get £75 per day.

500 hrs multi engine is a good insurance minimum to suggest to owners to cut their insurance and protect your rates :)
