let's assume a 10 jump courier from say Hurtoken to Olo, at 400k per jump, and maybe around 3 mins per jump, not including the dock/undock

That would be a 6 jump trip. Hurtoken to Uedama is 10 jumps: http://red-frog.org/jumps.php/Hurtoken,Uedama. As you can see on our trip calculator (make sure you Show Details), AFK the trip is 43 minutes, ATK its 18.5 minutes. Thats 3 ATK runs of the same route that you could do in an hour (12 mill at 3 * 4mil) or 3 AFK runs in 2 hrs (6 mil per hour at 3 * 4mil/ 2hrs). Courier pilots generally make less per hour than miners.

Note: its 350k per jump

I fail at map-reading, wasn't logged in and had a quick look at dotlan but didn't see the obvious, even had it going through Akora Oops

but yeah, it illustrates a point how low paid freighter pilots are, and people still want it cheaper Lol
