Salaries in Mexico
Hello guys,
could anybody give me an average figure what helicopter pilots (or general aviation pilots generally) can earn in Mexico per year?
(I know just locals can fly there commercially...)
Any input is welcome!
(you can also send me an P.M.)
Thank you in advance

2007,
Offshore round usd 3,500 per month, flying 412, Some 76, 15ON/15OFF
Corporate would be the double, Sby@Home.
It depends, corporate is an small circle, but well payed, flying 109E, 407, B4 etc..
Seismic is another option, round 5K, 15 On/Off
Law Enforcement, like offshore market.
PM if you like...

On the offshore figure wouldn't that would be Captain Low End? most 412 Copilots make about 2000, these figures are take home pay I believe, plus they pay for your airplane ticket home and back every 14 days, plus they will put in a hotel, plus you get some per diem. You will rarely have 14 hour duty days, as you are usually done by 1500 and can go the hotel by then, did I mention the cannot fly old aircraft, and always fly PIC / SIC who does most of the paperwork, and most guys don't even know what an engine rinse is . . .
Law enforcement varies greatly as it really depends which police team you fly for.
I was flying Agusta 109's until two months ago in Mexico City, (I always wanted to fly offshore so I quit that 2 months ago and went GOM) the pay figure is realistic for corporate + -, in Mexico you have nice things such as 30 days vacation every year, the Aguinaldo which is usually 1 or 2 months salary at the end of the year by law, bounuses and other stuff . . . job security is usually better as if the company doesn't need you anymore you get at least 3 months salary when they let you go plus 20 days for every year worked, and when you travel anywhere you usually get money to stay at good hotels and eat well all the time, life insurance, medical insurance, and a yearly employer matched savings plan . . . . .
Which reminds me . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . what the f . . .k am I doing flying GOM in Lousiana!!!?????
Ohhh but I always wanted to try the offshore thing, I wanted to see what it feels to sleep in a trailer, I wanted to know what it was like to do an engine rinse, I wanted to know what it was like to wash your aircraft everyday, I wanted to know, what it was like to fly a single engine over 125 miles out into sea with nothing to see but water, I wanted to know what it was like to spend 5 hours on a toad stool, I wanted to know what it was like to live in a base far away from civilization surrounded by alligators and crawfish, I wanted to know what it was like to . . . . . now you got me going . . .

Hey Blender don't be too hard on yourself. The only way you were ever going to know what it was like to fly in GOM was to go there. At least you did it - and now you know.
Wasn't it you that posted the photos of those gorgeous Mexican girls you worked with in MDF?

Blender! I kinda wanted to know that stuff, but i settled for every one elses stories.
My version: I always wanted to work in mexico. I wanted to know what good tacos tasted like. I wanted to know what it was like to have the customer always trying to kill you every day. I wanted to hang out with beautiful Mexican women and practice my spanish
. I wanted to know how good you could live on 50 dollars a day ( espically when living in the bottom of a canyon).. It was pretty good. no regrets!
You dont have to be a Mexican to work in Mexcio. Lots of gringos flying seismic, fire and construction in Mexcio. Pay can be pretty good and so can the experience.
There is a opening for a 350 driver with long line skills in Monterrey right now.
