Does anyone have the NBAA / ProPilot salary survey for a Citation Bravo (14,800lbs) Single Pilot w/Mgmt duties living in the Southwest?

Thanks in advance...
 
Dont have that information in front of me, but I would think it should be in the 65-75k range.

If you need another Bravo pilot let me know. :)
 
Exactly what kind of management duties?

If you mean running the show on top of driving the bird SP then yes absolutely 95 to 115k would be a good starting point depending on your experience.

Is it a corporate bird or an owner op? Big difference here in your life style which would call for added compensation IMHO.

I know folks pulling down 75k flying a crewed Citation II right now with 2 hard days a week off in the Southwest/So Cal Region.
 
Its a part 91 gig flying about 10-15 days a month and good QOL... Anyone with NBAA / Propilot numbers?

Considering how things are right now....jump all over $70K. Then look for a better job on your days off. If they're gonna take advantage of the high pilot unemployment and offer you a low salary, let that be what they are paying you to look for a new job.

Someone will do it for less...but this is what the job should pay.
 
Does NBAA list department manager in the situation? Being a one man show, single pilot would qualify as department manager as well. Which is probably higher pay.
 
I do not have a salary survey in front of me. That being said, what skills do you bring to the operation? If it is simply flying the jet from point A to point B you'll end up costing the owner money. $85-90K would be fair if you have no experience managing a flight department and learn as you go. OJT is expensive with aircraft. Do you have previous flight department management experience? Single pilot operations are still a flight department. Are you an A&P, ever managed a major maintenance event or refurb? If the answer is yes, then you are looking at $110K with bennies and hopefully a bonus.

tdwnds 1 has no idea what he is talking about. No WAY would I do that job for that little. That simply drives the bar lower and lower for us all!! Keep in mind that you would be responsible for the care and feeding of a muti-million dollar asset!
