I think you should appreciate your current career more and build upon that and enjoy the benefits of legal contracts, a pension and a bit of job security. Rent yourself an airplane from time to time, do a bit of flight instructing or get youserself a flight sim to satisfy the addiction. If you think anything is improving after covid, you are mistaken, you will work more hours for less money and you will be treated like scum with zero job security. If you demand a legal contract or employment you will be ignored or laughed at, some indebted kid is already waiting to do it for less. This is a dead end profession in the EU, prove me wrong.
