What is your take-home pay at the end of the month?

An excellent thread but
have you noticed the wide disparity of annual hours flown vs total pay?
As low as 250 hrs per yr up to 1200
Anyone good at graphs can show hours against pay for the sample? Might make interesting reading for those bumping up to max hours.
At 250 hours a year I could do a window cleaning round too and really make money

Take home pay 2600 euro after 1½ years in service
+ app. 1000 euro into the pension scheme.
600-700 hours a year, extremely tuff schedules, example:
Day 1 check in 4:00 am local time to LPA, landing 16:00 pm
Day 2 check in 16:00 pm local time, landing 4:00 am
And so on...."
----
Let me get this straight. does that mean you are overnighting in LPA for 12 hours straight before ur showtime at LPA ? or does that mean you arrive back in Amsterdam at 16:00 only to show up the next day at the airport at 16:00 PM for a red eye? If that is the case it sucks and I see ur point. However if you are saying you think a 12 hour layover sucks I would encourage you to come over here Stateside and fly for a regional.... 12 hour overnights are like a freaking vacation!!!! try 6/7 hour reduced rest overnights after flying 7 legs on a 14hr duty day.
Dus niet zeuren! werken voor je geld !!
proost!

Salary as year 3 jet 2 fo is about £36,300 for someone who joined when I did-not sure what it is now. It increases with annual increments.
£36300 is £3025 pm gross. Pay the tax + national insurance on that and you're left with about £2300 net. Plus duty and sector pay which for me worked out at about £350 pm when taken over the whole of last year: £2650 pm net. Others may be different of course depending on time spent at work and away from base.
In my case, add £250 net per month training pay to my paycheck makes it £2900; so yep it's more like 2900 than 3000.
no sponsor, I can't comment on what the other fo's make, as I don't know whats in their contracts. But it is the same company.
"Costcutting" by watering down new joiners contracts then reflecting it as increased profit on the company's balance sheet is a "clever" tactic developed by companies like ryanair. Unfortunately diseases like that seem to be contageous.

Mexicana
Ok, here go my 2006 numbers:
A320/19/18 First Officer
9th year in Mexicana Airlines
Hours Flown: 820
Total Monthly Income (after tax): $7,100 Usd, €5,600
Income includes per deim, food + gas coupons, anual savings fund.
Pension Fund around 10%, still very good medical coverage/insurance, 5 days off per month.
If you have certain seniority you can apply for 7x5 (fly/off)
Vacations down to 30 days (after agreement) and +1 day starting 10th year of seniority
We just signed an agreement lowering our costs because of 6 new LCC in Mexico... so probably these numbers will go down around 15% in 2007...
cheers!

Take the time to upload your terms to www.airlinepilotcentral.com
It's already a good resource for N.A. based carriers but international info is somewhat lacking. CHeers

I'm a Year 1 BE1900 F/O in the U.S. with monthly take-home of 1400 USD, give or take a few quarters. Looking at about 8 days off per month. We also get medical and life insurance, to some extent. I'm hoping to fly 1200 hours this year, and shed my distinction as the brokest pilot in this thread by moving to Capt.
