you seem a real PITA with an attitude. Not good if you want to become an pilot onboard a widebody jet buddy.

to the remark that you’ll get 10 $ a day, well, that is simply ridiculous. For cadets coming straight from the Academy, the Cruise reliefs earn a decent fee for the role they perform.
Agreed.

The intellect of some so called pilots baffles me. Two in particular stand out.

Crewing the queen of the skies would be a privilege to the fortunate few. Rather be SO/FO on her and build experience, see the world outside of Europe, rather than spend entire career on a 737 flying to Faro and straight back to Leeds, then down to the pub (as they do) on day off. Makes one bitter, it seems
