European's have the monopoly in 'JAR Land' but once outside of JAR they're competing with the rest of the ICAO world.
Phileas, I am sorry but I don't think that just because I decide to look for work outside of 'JAR land' that I should have to lower my expectation of wage. Maybe if it was flying DH6 in the maldives, I would consider peanuts, but especially not India.

If their are pilots available that will work for the budget they have then great, every one is happy. But if I am approached I will tell them what I am worth, and it doesn't help my case when agencies like Rishworth are providing what is suposed to be a specialist conultancy to the airline telling them that I will work for next to nothing, while they take their 1000bucks just to pull my name of a databse (not that I am registered with them any more by the by).

I would have thought that any pilot would follow this rule. I have certainly never met a non managerial pilot who is all in for the idea of reducing wages. Which leads me to the question Phileas me old mate, are you management, beancounter or agency worker (Rishworth perhaps?)?
