2. Highway patrol pilot
3. Private Sector executive
4. Police officer
5. Commercial airplane pilot
6. Petroleum engineers (maybe one day)
7. Governmen executive
8. Commercial helicopter pilot
9. Ship mate
10. OSHA inspector
 
It also says that the salary range for ATCers is $29000 - $39000.
Don't center controllers start at about $45,000?

HAHAHA I wanna know where I can get hired to pull in 82Gs as a CFI...

Probably make that as an instructor at several of the major third party 121 training centers (FSI, Simuflite) but most liklely that is not starting pay. More likely $82K is only after 10-15 years tenure and a lot of late/all nighters/weekends!

1. Commercial Airplane Pilots
2. Flight Instructor
3. Ceramic Engineer
4. Commercial Helicopter Pilots
5. Small Aircraft Pilots

What I like is that the 'Job Openings' are 'More than average' for the pilot jobs.

Commercial Airplane Pilots $57,435- $76,063
Commercial Helicopter Pilots $61,962- $79,445
Highway Patrol Pilots $30,126- $45,517
Flight Engineers
Police Patrol Officers
Engineering Managers
Guards and Watch Guards
Forest Fire Fighters
Forest Fire Fighters

So I've concluded that I'm in the right track by being a pilot, I also should be making a lot more money. So I'm either going back to flight instructing or I'm going to file a complaint with ALPA
 
Private Sector Executive 100% (guess I need to tell the company!)

Training and Development Manager 97%

Human Resource Manager 94%

Government Service Executive 91% (given my love for the gubment guess that's understandable)

Pilot 72% (thought that would be a lot higher)
 
Salary Range $67,030- $82,085 (spat up my coffee)

Filght instructor came up #30 for me. That's what I'm doing now. I adore it.

Look at the salary range they cite. So much for credibility.

Can anyone lend me twenty bucks?
 
1. Highway Patrol Pilot
2. Registered nurse (what?)
3. Police Patrol Officer
4. Actors and Performers (again...what?)
5. Talent Director (there is some talent I would like to direct, but it wouldn't make Hollywood....maybe the San Fernando Valley)
 
What the he ll is an "Equestrian Performer?"

Anyway, the others were

2. Janitor
3. Fast Food Employee
4. Oprah
5. Professional Mall Rat
6. Stalker
7. Game Show Host
