How much did you earn this fin year?
 

Righto, here it is. Hopefully somebody will find this interesting! Hours out of the logbook and pay from the group certificate. No made up numbers heard from somebody else’s mate etc.

Jetstar A320 FO Melbourne based
Pay: 104k
Tax: 30.1k
Hours: 835 (Jul 07-Jun08)
6 weeks leave taken – plus maybe 3 sick days
7 nights not in own bed – not including back-of-the-clock

Now I’m sure somebody will be kind enough to tell everybody how much money they think I’m paying per month off my endorsement, what the cost of living in Melbourne is blah blah blah. Apparently this will be equal to stacking shelves at Coles – we’ve heard it all before. Can we please not even reply to such posts in the hope that this thread stays on topic?

I’m keen to hear similar figures from others especially Virgin FOs. Capt/FO/SO figures from all the carriers plus regional Capt/FO would be interesting too.

Cheers

Mate, what you're getting is better than a shelf-stacker. It's just nothing like what a pilot flying an Airline jet should be earning.

Combined income from my main job as an International Playboy & Underwater Welder = $368,255.54

Appearances on the Midget Tossing Circuit = $155,478.25
