BigBusDriver06. Your whole theory is based on the fact that cheaper wages in the east will mean lower salaries for us.

For the last 40 years airlines in the enclosed market of the UK airlines have been offering different levels of pay. So why have these airlines with low salaries not had the ability to knock out the airlines with high salaries???

Bottom line is that the differences between salaries in the East and salaries in the West do not make a great difference to the bottom line. Otherwise over the last 40 odd years we'd already be working for peanuts here in the UK.

Encouraging other pilots to sell themselves short because of your flawed theory makes me want to
