@ Globalstream and l60f - I have to say that if the salaries you are quoting are correct I believe you have been lucky getting in to some very good gigs and that's great for you guys. Having said that, I don't think that's a "standard" L60 salary in Europe....

As I have stated on another thread here on PPRuNe the "never been below 9.000€ gross", as l60f is talking about, is a Falcon 900 / CL605 minimum pay in my book. Just my opinion, but I think I have a fairly good feeling of what the going rates are.

@ Globalstream - Yes, the salaries in EU are usually a bit higher than in the US that's why I stated the International pay as well....

International corporate / charter is quoted as being just below the numbers for US corporate.
....and as you can see that's not the case here... Not my numbers, its all according to Pro Pilot Salary Survey.

That brings me to the Pro Pilot salary survey. US salary comparison is just that. The salary itself does not include the monetary benefits like 401K, health insurance, company car, stock options, lol or what ever else is offered; if offered at all. Big differences for sure. And big differences between corporate and charter. There is no such differentiation in the international part.
Corporate and charter are separated in the survey.

How many companies today (in EU) are offering any of those benefits? With the exception of health insurance, very few I would say.

And even within Western Europe are big differences. Just compare Switzerland vs Germany. And thatīs not only true for pilot salaries. Statistics, like the Pro Pilot salary survey, always has itīs limitations.
Correct, but it gives an indication at least, the truth is probably somewhere in between....

I still stand by my opinion that €9.000-€10.000 for a L60 Captain is not realistic in Europe today.

Oops, missed the differentiation.

Exactly my point. That makes it difficult to compare US vs Europe 1:1.

I still stand by my opinion that €9.000-€10.000 for a L60 Captain is not realistic in Europe today.
I reckon itīs on the high side as well. Heard CHF 11-12K in Switzerland plus 100-120 per diems. Thatīs around EUR 9-10K plus per diems. But, I canīt image many other European operators being close unless one flies for a private flight department which holds its pilots in high regard.

Thank you for your replies guys!!
I too think a gross salary of 9000 - 10000 Euros is not very realistic in Europe,
considering the current environment.
A friend and colleague used to earn this, but years ago, before this international financial mess developed we seem to be in.
Happy landings!!
