Question
Ned,
What is a typical salary for a hot air balloon pilot? What is the cost of the training process? Is it a difficult industry to find steady work in? Part-time work in?
thanks
Hi David, sorry I don't have any of the information you requested. You may have better luck if you contact someone in that business. The following web site is for a business in Park City, UT that may be able to help you if you contact him. Good luck, Ned
