Abosolute bitch fest but many comments have merit.
I wonder if we can say that those willing to go out there, take that dead end job then move onto a job with descent pay have earnt the right to be here.
It is true what cunningham says about wife/son etc...... But i guess you could call this a way of keeping those who truly do not want to be here away from the rest of the industry. Nothing hurts me more then seeing people who dont want to be there getting jobs while others who are working their ass off for work and want to fly can't find anything.
But for those out there whinging.. dont be fooled... there are plenty of GA jobds out there that do pay the award. Its the hook that lands the pilot or how willing the pilot is to take the bate which does keep the prices down or forces operators to increse pay, charge more for charters and price the industry out of business.
well thats my two cents
