Hi guys & girls!

Posted on Avcom as well, pprune is easier to comment though. I know this type of topic has been mentioned before, but many years ago so wanted an update. For those of you who are currently contract pilots with first hand knowledge, you dont have to mention your names obviously but could you put your aircraft that you fly and your daily pay or how your company works it out for you. If you dont want to mention the company name its ok. Just trying to get an average of what a contract pilot can expect to be paid out in the field per say. Any other information you can think of that will be beneficial you can add. Give you an example below.

1. Aircraft type
2. Position, as in Captain or co-pilot
3. Country operating in.
4. USD per day (I think most companies pay now on a per day basis in $)
5. Company name (if you dont want to you dont have to)


thanks, oh and please lets not get into an argument about we shouldnt fly for money or even mention it and all that, this is just a census!
