Spindle,
Are the Airline and Air Taxi groups as sour as you accuse the helicopter pilots of being?
It would be a better comparison of using another "professional pilot group" and see how they carry on.
Perhaps another comparison would be the l airplane Air Taxi sector....and compare that to the Commercial Helicopter Sector.
You might start right here....with a couple of clicks of a button......
Good jobs still exist in 2020
