The question of how much money commercial pilots make is complicated. This article will discuss pilot salary data provided by Yahoo! Finance and Florida Flyers. While the information varies, it is clear that pilots earn more in some regions of the world than others (and that US-based pilots are comparatively well paid). It is also clear that commercial pilots can earn more than military pilots (although there is also a lot of variation in those statistics, and numbers can change depending on what benefits are included).
