Somebody help me please. I see a lot of comparisons with occupations totally
NOT significant to those of the aviation industry.
So, riddle me this.
Before 9/11 whenever you personally perceive the aviation industry to be at it's peak, comparatively speaking, what were first officers making in first year incomes relative to their captain counterparts? More significantly, what were first officer
flight time/total time, or experience before they started flying for an airline? I personally can't remember in the past that "six/eight month wonders" were transitioning to jets. Also help me here. . . are foreign pilots with less than 1000 hrs TT flying overseas in 737s?
Focus more with apples to apples analogies past and present for me to understand a salary perspective.
