Your not really putting things in to perspective here. They are not the same jobs and shouldnt be payed the same. How much does it cost for pilot v ATC training ? Do you see GA pilots getting paid sick or annual leave RDO's e.t.c ? are you travelling on a daily basis leaving your family behind. Do you get forced to become a sub contractor so you lose all of the above benefits???
Sometimes I get the feeling ATC think that we are in the air for them to make there job easier on the ground... go figure
I'm Not saying that what you get you dont deserve, but for godsakes stop making it so hard for people to make a buck in aviation.
