Longjohn your figures are completely wrong. I think if you had a real look at how long it took most guys and girls to get there jet commands in VB/JQ you will find that most of us have been flying for a min 10-15 year professionally. The wages for about 98% of that group never earnt more than $15-30k in their first 5 years of flying and never got to stay at home with mummy and daddy for those 5-10 years. Unlike your other professions

I do agree with you we can't let our profession slip any lower, but no one that I can see have the balls these days to do anything about it. AS on other topics no one is willing to make any comments on our up coming EBA's

Unfortunately management knows it.


time to go drive a train!!!!
