COMP NEWS – A new survey indicates that business aviation pilots are seeing a sizable pay raise – up nearly 12 percent from last year.
The National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) says business aviation pilots saw average pay raises of about 12 percent in the last year.
The association’s annual compensation survey also found that the average salary increase across all positions was 7.22 percent.
Dr. Christopher Broyhill, who helped conduct the survey, said it confirms industry scuttlebutt. “We’re hearing a lot of anecdotal stuff about pay raises out there and people getting more money for these positions, but that pretty much anchors it, shows that what we’re hearing is true.”
The survey took a deeper dive into various forms of pilot compensation and discovered that retention bonuses for senior captains averaged $27,000. \
