At least, they did until a month or 2 ago - which turns us full circle back to the very point of this thread!
Not sure what bubble you think you've burst - and not sure what qualifies you to think you know how much I earn!
There's plenty of current and former pilots who talk about their pay on the website and those who are most vocal are the ones who have added their 2p to wannabe and future trainee forums. Go have your reality check discussion with them.
