Question
i was wondering what the average salary of a skydive pilot is?

Answer
Evan

Not sure if it is 'average', but I got $5 per load and $10 per flight hour at the two DZ where I worked. It came out to be almost the same pay at two loads per hours. Not sure about the turbine equipment as I never flew any at a DZ.
