[QUOTE="KRAM, post: 114394, member: 6275"] Buddy of mine is a pilot, has been in it for about the same amount of years as I have been with UPS (20 years) and Top Scale Drivers make more money than he does as a Captian right around $43k a year and he has to hump the loads in and out of his plane on top of flying it. I think that is a joke for what they have to do. I have flown with him and I am amazed at what it takes to fly a plane. He flys a twin turbo prop MU2. Not a big plane, but it's not like jumping in a UPS truck and turning a key releasing a parking break, throwing it in gear and hitting the gas. It is a very highly skilled job. He used to fly for Fed-Ex until they cut his flight route out about 2 1/2 years ago. 911 did pilots no favors and good paying jobs are hard for them to come by. I too remember pilots standing at the picket lines with us and thought it was a great for them to be there with us. Good for the pilots and getting a contract, I hope them all the best and that $300k a year if they can get it. :thumbup1: [/QUOTE]
