They mean the helo industry as a whole....1500 hour Robbie ranger starting 60-75k

 

First year Regional FO with 750 hours mil or qualifying school etc .....90k 

You're 23 which one are you going with ?? Better yet how many career helo guys left for that 90k to start at year One. Years 2-3 at a major you will triple a helo salary almost, it's financially stupid to accept the poor wages they have offered for so long. They finally run out of old retired mil guys from Vietnam, chickens coming home to roost.

Era guys were never appreciated.  I sense an issue for back pay, with interest.  What's fair is fair.

and yet theres the Air Methods pilot running his mouth about how "money isn't always the answer, being where you want to be, doing the right thing, taking care of of your patients and crew is more important..."

Give me a break, no wonder you clowns at AMC are constantly getting the shaft when you have line pilots like this idiot. Turning a profit for an enormous greed driven corporation is doing the right thing over them paying you a better salary to get up at 3am and land on an LZ set up by a podunk volunteer fire department in a 30 year old helicopter

AMC and the idiots that work there deserve each other

Yea but, he gets the satisfaction of doing it while earning $300k less that an airline captain with similar hours and years of experience.

There isn't high enough reimbursement from patients in EMS for you to ever get paid 300K. The airlines on the other hand make enough Revenue to pay their guys 300k. You're in the wrong business if you think you're going to make $300k doing EMS
