The next phase of aerobic respiration is the Citric Acid Cycle, also known as the Kreb's Cycle, named for the biochemist who discovered it. To prepare for this stage, the pyruvate molecules from glycolysis are converted to a 2-carbon compound called Acetyl CoA.
Commercial pilots working in nonscheduled air transportation earned $78,010 on average in 2011, the bureau says. Those employed by technical schools and trade schools averaged $66,070, and workers providing support activities for air transportation earned $71,440.
This is not a great representation of what a pilot is capable of making, even after only a short time, but some figures say that a new pilot, at a smaller, regional airline, may begin at around $20,000 for his or her first year, but that is for months averaging about 72 flight hours.
