Cx Check/Trainers- Professional Pilots or Management ?
The time is coming when all our Check and Trainers will be put in a positon where they will have to decide whether they are professional pilots or management. Unfortunately the circumstances will not permit them to remain in a grey area.
Should they decide they are management then, sadly, they will undermine the profession itself and the future of their own family.
As an Association we will have to find a way to protect those check and trainers who value the status of the profession. They will surely come under intense individual pressure from people who wish to destroy the status of the pilot profession. The management will try to drive them out of their positions of responsibility because they will not allow themselves to be used as weapons against their colleagues. These are the people we need in the positons of check and trainers. These are the people who will ensure we, as pilots, are the best prepared to ensure the safety of the travelling public.
We must consider this now. We need quality people in these positions but we must find a way to protect them from being used against their profession by management.
Comments most welcome
