Low pilot pay called 'dirty little secret'

[HA25]

Example:

( Source: APC. Legacy Airlines. Annual Guarantee. )

American Airlines / First Year Pay = $26,880 / Annual

( Oh BTW...That's about what it was 20 YEARS ago. Adjusted for inflation = $26,800.00 in 2008 had about the same buying power as $15,375.17 in 1989. Source: http://www.dollartimes.com/calculators/inflation.htm)

American Airlines / Second Year Pay = $57,600

GEE. WHO paid for that training cycle?

Stop living the Delusion.

I'm just sayin'....Get out while you can.


Sad, BUT TRUE.

Very good points.. all very good.

This profession is messed up in part because we are willing to accept this sort of thing.
