I have searched all over the internet, and yet could not find any useful information. please someone who has knowledge on this should help out as soon as possible.

Generally there are number of variables that determines what an airline pilot earn monthly such as:
1. Years of experience
2. Type ratings
3. Flying hours
4. The airline
5. Rank of the pilot


A fresh pilot from aviation school with a NCAA Comercial Pilot Licence (CPL), without type rating, may find it difficult to secure a job in Nigeria. If the person manages to get a job with an airline that would send him to a type rating course, the person may earn around 200K to 500K naira monthly depending on the airline.

Someone with type rating (a first officer) may earn around 300K to 800K. Again this depends on the airline. The aircraft he's rated on, and his flying hours.

Finally a captain (the authority on the aircraft) would earn around 500K to 1.5M monthly. The specific salary again depends on the airline. The aircraft he's the captain on ( a Cessna captain can't earn same with B737 captain).

Airline Pilots abroad can earn up to $10,000 - $25000 monthly (that's 2-5million assuming exchange rate to be 1:200). Because you cannot compare Emirates pilot with local Air peace pilots.

If you are considering flying as a career in Nigeria; make sure you have a plan for employment after spending the millions they pay at NCAT for training. Right now, very few aircraft are flying in Nigeria. Airlines are closing down. If you're getting a scholarship fine, grab it.

Are you a pilot ?

Please stop giving wrong figures.


Ordinary a flight dispatcher with Air peace earns 150 to 200k month salary and you're here saying what's not.

$500000000

Thanks for this.

800k and above. They also pay them some allowance per each successful landing

T

12 mil to 30 mil per year. based on experience .

They earn money

I'm not here to comment about the pilot please who post that nollywood video there you make me waste my MB is that how white does there own

350k reliably

To the best of knowledge, Fixed wings and rotary wings pilot have a different salary scale. You may want to be more specific about this. Having said that, I will weigh in to give an clue about rotary wing pilots salary. If you get trained by any helicopter operator, I'm afraid you may begin your career with a regrettable figure (it's worse with a Nigerian firm) of 250K. However, as you build your flying hours and progress from mere FO to SFO to Captain, you'll be earning slightly over $3k to $8.5K depending on what client your company is flying for and your type ratings. At the moment in Nigeria, helicopter pilots flying for Shell earns more than their counterparts but you need AW139 rating.

That being said, if you would like to go into flying, Fixed wing will offer you the shortest route to become Captain with less earnings. The reverse is the case for rotary wings. My advice is if you are about 30yrs, start with fixed wings, when you become a captain, convert to rotary wings.

I want to know too

Cos the money for training is overwhelming

While my guy from one federal poly in the North dy chow 1.8m/month for Shell.

If dem no pay pilot reach like dt, make im come go write jamb.

Settingz321:
according to my pilot cousin, around 1.4million per flight

I'm sure your pilot cousin own the aircraft to earn that much in Nigeria

Anything not less than the minimum wage

ask edo pilots

tobloj:


I'm sure your pilot cousin own the aircraft to earn that much in Nigeria

He's right .

The highest paid are the helicopter pilots who earn over 3million .


An ordinary flight dispatcher with air peace earn 150 to 200k monthly .

OMG! it looks real...

I'm sure they still earn more than professors of some higher institution...

@Settingz321 1.4 million per successful flight smuggling coke ryt

I'm sure you didn't read that guy's line very well. He said 1.4million per flight. Which means if he flies 20 times in a week, his cousin must have earned 28 million. Hope you grab now?
