Bino's, fair enough. I have to admit that my cage is rattled whenever I hear the word 'laws' and 'economics' used in the same sentence.
My point is that purely rational systems are tools for humans. When you allow an idea to rule the humans, instead of the humans using the idea as a tool, then you have given away all the advantages of being human.
I don't think the 4C program is focussed on the plight of pilots. I believe the point made by the 4C program is that regional aviation is a mess. The people it serves are Australians, they deserve better than they are getting, and the crap conditions that pilots endure are just one symptom.
Pilots rank near the top in surveys of 'the most trusted professions.' For many non-aviation people watching, the program would have been a jaw-dropper.
Noted your point about tuesday nights. Look forward to seeing your next post, I'll try to keep a lid on my temper
