British Airways Offers $100,000 Salary for Pilots to Perform Ground-Only Taxiing Duties at Chicago O'Hare
British Airways is introducing a unique new role for qualified pilots at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport. The position, known as a 'Pro-pilot,' involves taxiing the airline's long-haul aircraft between gates and remote stands. This ground-based job comes with a substantial annual salary of approximately $100,000 (£80,000) plus benefits. The initiative is designed to enhance operational efficiency and reduce delays associated with complex ground movements at the busy hub. While candidates must hold a commercial pilot's license, the role requires no in-flight duties, focusing exclusively on ground maneuvering.
