Harrier, no, airlines dont "owe" us a living, but they certainly do "owe" us a decent salary and COS. The nature of the job entails alot of time away from the family, missing out on those important times, fatigue and constant jet lag etc. What price do YOU put on your professional career? Pilots are under continuous salary threat by people who have never had the responsibility an airline pilot has everytime he/she goes to work.
