SPIFR is top of the career? Yes the mighty EC-135. it is pretty mid level, if that. Reality is a helicopter SIC gets paid more and works less than a regional FO and has better schedule. Helicopter pilots get paid better than fixed pilots who fly an aircraft with a comparable number of seats. Airline captains get paid better than helicopter captains but typically don't have as good as a schedule. Pay versus quality of life.
Corporate in the Northeast pays $120-140, Airlines $180-$200. Do I want to work twice as much and be away from home nearly half the year to make that money, not really. An extra $40,000 a year just isn't worth it. If it is to you, then go for it. |
