Your crew experience is worth something.
A 500-word layover guide written by someone who actually flew that trip is worth more to this community than anything AI can produce. CrewsPaper pays you for it.
How it works
Write what you know
Layover guides, aircraft reviews, career advice, crew finances. Any category where your crew experience adds genuine value.
Get read by crew
Your article goes in front of a verified professional aviation audience — the only people who can really evaluate whether you got it right.
Creator Score builds
Read-time, saves, crew upvotes, social shares, and comment quality combine into your monthly Creator Score. We publish how it works — no black box.
Monthly payout
Your share of the creator pool hits your bank account by the 15th of each month. Minimum $10. Paid via Stripe Connect direct bank transfer.
The transparent split
Medium has never disclosed its creator split and has been cutting payouts since 2024. Ours is in writing, and it's in your terms.

|---|---|---|
Crew Member ($5/mo) 60/40 split of net after Stripe fees | $2.68 | $1.78 |
Supporter ($10/mo) 100% of the extra $5 (net) goes to creators | $2.68 | $6.73 |
