As long as there is no solidarity between the vast majority of pilots for better T&C's, and paid training, its a long road to Berlin.
As individuals we are helpless, and insignificant. But as a group...
They would have no choice if everyone refused to pay for their own TRs. With the "It'll never work" mentality, it will never work.
It would be tough in the beginning, but we would be there to reap the rewards of better T&Cs in the future for ourselves, and future pilots.
If only it was possible to set a date, and get so organised where all pilots world wide say "no TR, no FLYING!". I wonder how long it would take before we would start getting paid for training.
