The rest of us, the pilots who are now well respected (and well payed) professionals, holding Captain positions in medium or widebody jets, came to where we are now by overcoming our very own set or circumstances: 9/11, SARS, war in Irak and Afghanistan, the 2008 credit crunch (aviation's worst moment since WW2), and posterior worlwide 10 years Great Recession (or whatever way you spell it), and yet we didn't pay. We didn't bribe our way in. We studied, acquired experience, prepare ourselves, endured never ending recruitment process, interviews and screening sims, and became better professionals. Something that seems to be out of reach for you and your generation. Keep buring your head in the sand. We all know where you guys come from, we all know which are the P2F airlines and, sincerely, there will be no place for your kind in any self respected company in the future.
Zero simpathy.
100% spot on iggy. Problem is the young generation feels a sense of entitlement ("millennials" ?) and there is no will to work their way into the flight deck of a 320 or 737 anymore. They do not see the big picture and do not care about ruining the industry and damaging the already damaged profession. P2F or PayforUgrade, it's all about them and money talks.
