You are right on the whole fying is too cheap. But putting prices up does not mean as a pilot you will get better terms and conditions, as the greedy airlines might want to keep the money for themselves.
In order to improve terms, we need times to be good (which they are not at the moment) and you need to some how cut down the supply of pilots.
Now how you cut the supply of pilots is anyones guess, I just went with a minimum number of hours. You could alternatively do it on age ie min age to fly on an AOC operation is say 25.
The numbers involved are irrelevant and even my suggestions are too, but in order for terms to improve in the future when times start to become good the supply of pilots need to be reduced.
