Compensation figures shown in this directory are U.S. occupational benchmarks, not guaranteed starting salaries. Aerospace job titles do not always correspond directly to one government occupation category, so some specialized roles use the closest relevant U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics occupation as a benchmark.
Actual compensation varies by employer, experience, specialization, geographic location, security clearance, education and level of responsibility.
