Citation starting pay

[Parrot_Head_Fly]

Down in Mississippi, flying a citation 500 as a crew, what should I expect for salary. Rumor mill says 35,000 first year because they are paying for the type. I'm not sure. What is expected? Thanks in advance.

PIC or SIC? 91 or 135? Simuflite/FSI or company training? Need more info bud.

In NC I see any where from $23 - $30K for FO, and from $35 - $65K for typed CA among friends and aquaintances. Dunno if that helps any.

SIC till I get enough time, and its 91, corporate. I believe they will send me to flightsafety. Eventually get typed in thier westwind, and fly 135 in it.

35K ain't bad for and SIC in MS. Especially if you're getting a type. Take the hell out of it. Good luck!

Any openings that you know of????

Sounds like a good gig. My first year flying a new Encore was only 25k, and I was typed!

Nahhh ... but I'm just a lowly part-time B200 Radio Ho, and most of my flying friends have moved on to the regionals, so I only hear about King Air and Baron jobs. When other corporate pilots and department managers know you're a B200 Radio Ho, they ask the real pilots to walk around the corner so they can talk in private about real flying jobs in airplanes without propellers.

"Say Fred! How are you? Wow ... I was just thinking about you the other day. We're getting another Citation II and uh ... (looks in my direction) ... ahh hey Fred, walk over here so we can talk in private."

Hey now! Watch it! I do just fine, and my plane has props!

My first 135 citation FO gig paid 36k a year and they typed me right off the bat. I was happy with what they offered at the time. Sounds like you've been offered a fair deal.
