Australian Airline wages compilation
Have you seen GA wages in this century? 75k/year in a jet beats 50k/year getting flogged in some piston
The 'Endorsement Cost" is actually real money (money you could invest in a nice safe ETF or LIC and be very pleased with in 20 or 30 years time), and as has been argued on Prune ad-nauseum over the years, a cost that should be born by the company and secured by Bonding an individual. No more, no less. Something 'Pilots' (I'll use that term nice and loosely for those that value themselves so lowly) with SJS seem to be blind to unfortunately.
There are jobs out there paying far (far, FAR) better than this. Jobs that are both in GA, and a step up from GA (Regionals, Customs, RFDS, and yes, other jet operators), and they don't ask the employee to bear the operational expenses of running the business, i.e; training your staff.
Keep your expectations low and you'll never be disappointed.
Extrashot seems to have had a double hit of methadone here....
While you may not agree with what they pay, they have given plenty of turboprop guys their first crack at a jet which can be demoralizingly hard to achieve in this country.
At least its better than the US RJ jockeys

Actually, what they are Paying is fair enough for the Aircraft type, the operation, etc. That is, before the 'mandatory' salary sacrifice is taken out and as a result you drop below the minimum Air Pilot award rates ( Minimum salary + turbojet addition to minimum + copilot instrument addition = early/mid $60's for this aircraft type, no? Why not just pay that for your F/O's then?).
What I don't find acceptable is People paying (or Companies charging, however you want to look at it), to get the job, thus for the first two years your take home pay becomes less than a City Bus driver (actually $75K probably is as well, good on the Bus Drivers).
I understand that this was the industry norm a decade ago. To be principled about it meant you missed out. Now, through no shortage of hard work and invaluable time spent away from their families, Pilot reps around the country (Jetstar, Cobham, Virgin… just to name a few), have managed to make it largely a thing of the past. The trade off might be that in some companies you might start on a lower wage for a few years, but its ABOVE the minimum award rates.
Then after all of that effort, that people would still be willing to Pay an enormous amount of good money for a pretty useless endorsement - with a company thats still not completely out of its start up phase - just so you can fly a jet...
That they pay above the McDonald-esque rates of the US Regionals is no justification. Well, not to me anyway. Cheers all.

From this and your other posts, it doesn't seem it took you long to start complaining about working at VA.

Time for an update of these all important stats I reckon, given the few EBA's recently voted down and the pilot-supply crisis (discuss that at length on other threads please, not here).
It won't be anywhere near the Chinese contract increases (or even Ryanair's) and I'd be surprised with anything other than the usual "CPI" adjustments, as Australian airlines still have their head in the sand with arogance.
Anyway, handing-over...

Australian airlines still have their head in the sand with arogance.
If someone is prepared to do your job for less than you and at the minimum acceptable standard (not hard for a pilot) then there will be downward pressure on your wage. And that has been the reality for a long time now.
Perhaps the trend will reverse due to the reduction in supply currently enveloping the industry but to suggest that a failure for rapid wage growth is due to 'airlines having their heads in the sand' is entirely myopic.

Thanks for contributing to the data with your diatribe mate and thanks for supporting my contention with exactly what I was talking about with Ryanair & China. 
I'm well versed on the economics & mechanisms at play, from both behind the yoke & behind the desk and need no lecture thanks from some apparent "manager" feeling the pinch due to cancelled services or no 457 approvals.
The rest of the globe has realised the supply drought and yes, it has happened already and getting worse, not "is developing"... just take a look at all the cancelled services & "rescheduling" around Australia this week! Anyway, this is for another thread as I said.

Salary and tax rates are in PGK (KINA) but paid in $AUD at the exchange rate of the day. All these figures are in $AUD having been converted at an indicative exchange rate of .40c
SALARY
DH8 Captain $110,295 First Officer $47,063
400 Captain $122,088 First Officer $74,949
F100 Captain $143,958 First Officer $99,955

TAX
PNG Kina Tax figure converted to $AUD at .40c.
Tax on $28,000 is $8,564 then 40% on every dollar over $28,000 up to $99,999.
Tax on $100, 000 is $37,364 and the 42% on every dollar over $100,00.
Eg: 737 Captain will GROSS $163, 544, pay TAX of $64, 052 and NET $99,492 ($AUD8,291 / $USD6,316 per mth) without any super paid by the Company.
To put the salary into perspective: Using the figures quoted at Post 213 and the online ATO tax calculator, the ERJ 135 Captain will net $AUD 88,913 and receive $12,000 in super, a total package to $100,913 ($1,421 pa more than the PX B737 Captain).
Thanks for your updates and PM's, people
Happy Landings

Does anyone have the Qantas info?
They don’t have 767s anymore and I’d suggest that those 737 figures are massively underestimating that everyone I know is complaining about being over worked but no one doesn’t like the pay.
114k? I’m happy to be corrected

Aussie FO,
Yeah those numbers are certainly off the mark but it's hard to give an apples to apples comparison figure as the 737 minimum guaranteed hours are so low compared to actual hours flown. However, with an EBA coming up later this year I think it may be best if people don't start talking up the pay figures they are on as it may be used against us down the track.
Just my opinion.

Which ones C'Bloggs? Tell us.
Many are old figures Bloggs I know but I'm just going off all the data I'm sent and what people are putting up here... it's a constantly evolving template which stagnated for awhile. Don't shoot the messenger.
Yep Beer Baron noted. Just base rates planned to be here only, not "guaranteed hours" or Cinderella stories used to attract crew. We know Overtime is always available and even more so now and in the future, IF you want it. It's a sounding board to educate others on their place in the market especially when negotiations are due with this supply shortfall, plus a useful tool to crunch the numbers with before taking a job offer or otherwise.
