Biggest misconception there is. Seldom does a pilot make over 100k, they have student loans with debt piling up as they work their way up from being flight instructors (12k per year) to First officers in regionals (less than 20k per year) and when they finally make it to the majors, their student loan debt is nearly a half million and they are bringing in 30k per year with no time with their families, not getting enough sleep, and being crapped on by someone who wants an extra click on their website article.

Between $75,000 to $120,000, before overtime. No previous experience needed..... Try elevator repair. Did it for 36 yrs.

"Wonder if the reason for these people being paid high is because of lack of enough people with the ability to perform or the willingness to do these jobs." - On this point, you'll have me nodding in agreement.
