What is your take-home pay at the end of the month?
 
I've seen this on some of the Airline threads and i was just interested in how much people get paid in the rotary business becasue i might go into flying after college So it would be really helpful if people would state there: A/c type, type of work, hours per month and monthly salary.

Boasters are highly encouraged!!!

So, just to warn you. You're gonna have at least 1 guy come on here telling you that if money is your only motivation, to stay out of this industry.

So now that that bull**** statement is out of the way, let the games begin!!!:ok:

James_Grace 6th Aug 2008 22:28

i was just thinking that:O but i need to know if the money is enough to give me a decent life because all the job satisfaction in the world won't pay the mortgage hehe

Join the services and they will put you though college and flying training and pay you well. I left on £3700 month net last year.
I think as a newly winged officer you take home monthly net, about £2000 going up annually and also incrementally, every 4yrs as you become more experienced. The only down side is, recently, getting shot at regularly.

If you do join and you mention my name as the link, I'd get £1500 so I'll split it with ya. ....deal or no deal??

good luck.

James_Grace 6th Aug 2008 23:02

sounds like a deal to me

Take home salary of about $3000/month plus $30/hour flight pay, so a good month take home is $4500 CDN.

Flying 206L and S76.

Averages around $200,000 USD per month. I know I am going to catch lots of flak for this but maybe it will help a newbie make the best decision for himself/herself. At the tender age of 18, I had fixed in my mind that I was going to have a career as a professional pilot (wasnt necessarrily thinking about helicopters) and was all set to go off to Embry Riddle to pursue this. My father sat me down and provided a little career counseling. This was influential and caused me to change course for a career in computer technology, my other area of great interest. Turn the clock ahead 40 years: successful business carrer doing something I loved every minute, upscale houses, cars, and a string of nice airplanes and helicopters. The downside: I havent been able to fly as much as I might like. The point: a flying career involves certain tradeoffs - be sure you understand these up front and can live with them.

Many of my friends are pro pilots. One recently took early retirement from a major airline where he was an instructor captain flying 747's on the Orient routes, with a seniority number around 4. I said "you have the best job in the world - one that many would covet." He said "I just cant stand the hassle anymore. If I'm lucky, I get 3 landings a month. You did it the right way." Now, he is sweating whether the pension he worked 30+ year to qualify for will be there when he needs it , as his airline has been in and out of bankruptcy.

Many folks who fly are really bright and can be successful at most anything they put their minds to. Why not do something that is both enjoyable and financially rewarding? This doesnt rule out flying because you enjoy it. Instead of flying an S76 in the Gulf, why not be President of Sikorsky (and pehaps have your own personal S76)?

OK, lets have it!

So who is going to fly you from one continent to another?

EN48 8th Aug 2008 01:18

My deliberately provocative post wasnt intended to suggest that one should not pursue a flying career, but that one should attempt to understand the tradeoffs compared with other alternatives. For some, an excellent choice, for others, maybe not.
