Does it really matter any more Pete? You say you have been doing it for 2 years now. Isnt it time you went and got a real job now, and gave a newbie a crack at it.

Let me guess you are doing it for free, and you wonder why they dont treat you with respect. They would know if you are getting paid or not and might be trating you in accordance to your worth. If you are getting paid I withdraw the comment.

If skydivers still dont have any time for you after 2 years it might be time to look at yourself. I always found it a little hard to break into the crowd at a new dropzone but it does not take long, as long as you leave the whole " I am a pilot, listen to me" attitude at the door. The problem might also be with your flying ability, they might not be pilots but they can spot a bad one a long way away.

Not trying to come across as overly harsh but most jump pilots I have met have not had the same problems you have and definately not for 2 years.
