Question for you guys. I talked to the boss he says i'll be making between 2700-3000/month for being on the cessna mainly then going on the beaver (how much time depends on what happens to the other guys next season, ie pilots leaving, retirment etc.) If i end up going on the beaver full time or whatever i'll get a raise. what do you guys think?

Good money for the Cessna. Definitely need a raise for the Beev. $3500 - $4000 per month minimum for a first year Beaver Pilot..

Nicer, easier to fly than a Cessna, remember to check your fuel and add oil...

Anyone here still paid mileage?

yup... Mileage can work out quite well. Especially for holds.. It's the best
way, in my books. Unless you're just not doin' much flying...
When the operator is makin' coin, so are you...

Royal Dutch Shell had gross profits in 2006 of $26 billion dollars. Right behind ExxonMobil and ahead of BP as far as petroleum goes...
Pimps indeed!

You must be tired, that post from Rowdy was before his latest foray into the wilds of the coast mountains.
Get some sleep, Rudder Bug.

that about right in my mind..... how about 9k for the Turbine Otter?

ah, better settle for 7 on that as well, it is really a lot easier to handle on the water than a stone boat and all round for that matter.

How about 7 for the turbine and 9 for the standard. Takes alot more care to keep a radial happy.
