Wanting to be a bush pilot.?

-What is the pay like? Where is the best country to fly in i.e Alaska, Australia, Africa.... (Scenery) Any recommended Airlines i.e Era Alaska... (Flying Wild Alaska was my inspiration)

Thanks!The pay in Alaska is about 6500 a month. Which is 78,000 a year.. and I'm not really an expert on pilots and that. But yeah good luck with that :)Pay, whats that?



Any flying has to be for the love. The industry suffered a huge blow for the last several years.

Alaska, Cananda is probably many peoples choices. Perhaps more opportunity for paying customers/ tourists.

It is not a high paying lifestyle, if that is very important to you, head for the airlines instead, even there the pay is way down, and the road up is long.

Perhaps look into the flying missionary school in Washington state. They will teach you and you have to give them a committment to fly with them for so many years, but think of the adventure and good work you will be doing. Dont remember the name, but should be an easy search on the net.
I thought about being a bush pilot once, but found that bushes are extremely hard to fly. I decided on flying airplanes instead.
