Does it matter? It costs millions to train a fighter jock, yet how much do they earn?baithammer wrote: ↑Sat Jul 01, 2017 9:53 amThe consideration to take into account is the cost per person compared to the pay for each, with the basic package your stuffing 60,000 cr worth of gear into someone who is only paid 3,000 /mos.
The USN and most airforces finds it worth investing millions in their skills, yet does not exactly make them rich...

So training a fighter jock seems to cost 10s of millions by now...
