Any update on these payscales in 2022?

[-42]

5-10% less than 5 years ago. Covid don’t you know. Hard times and we are all in this together. Never let a good crisis for to waste.

I’m getting harassed by fixed wing and helicopter operators alike. People that left during the downturn largely have shifted gears and directed their lives into much greener pastures. Canadas wages are more than stale, they’re embarrassing. I maintain my rate and get what I do when I’m here in Canada because of connections and what I bring to the table. Having said that it’s still always a haggling process each time.

Some are slightly up (5-15% depending on desperation) however largely nothing has changed. Be wary of any operator that states there will be “some overtime and weekend work required”. That’s usually an understatement…
