From about $26/hr to about $35/hr licensed and endorsed. I believe the top end goes a bit higher for WestJet mainline.

Up in this corner of the country from my experience an ACA can expect to start around $30/hr ish and work up to about $40/hr ish.

Re: AME SALARY
youll make more money on helis, even just as an ame with endorsements youll make more then a crew chief even on big jets. If your goal is money then go heli. if your goal is happiness, go back to school!
Re: AME SALARY
Absolutely. The money is in rotorwing. HOWEVER there is zero stability and you are gone from home 80% of the year. If you are looking for some degree of stability and have a life, try to get on with a fixed wing shop.helidougg8111 wrote:youll make more money on helis, even just as an ame with endorsements youll make more then a crew chief even on big jets.
