We pilots really are our own worst enemy.
Well unfortunately he's absolutely right.
Having looked at pretty much all german airlines that are hiring right now the aforementioned numbers are the industry standard. As low as they might are.
The most infuriating thing is that all the airlines hiring right now are, like everywhere in the world, in dire need of new pilots to minimise their AOG. Regardless of that though they continously offer less money while flying more hours than before.
I'd still pick the job over anything else on the ground but the mentality towards pilots and their pay is getting ridiculous.
