Sorry DPIT, did not mean to spill the beans on how you may or may not spend your day. All I meant to do was put across an example of how someone could use this site and do a meaningful days work.
Good to see some reasoned replies on this thread, so many in the past (and this one was starting to go that way) get to personal.
Back to the point, salary levels are primarily based upon supply and demand. With the pilot profession being one that many people aspire to and can achieve, this means there are many of you around. Lots of you available equals no pressure on salaries to increase to attract you. The surgeon's salary levels maybe higher due to the limited number of people that are available with that level of expertise.
So basically the point is, stop all those aspiring teenagers who want to become pilots and before long your salaies will go up as airline compete to attract you.
If you keep whinging constently like you do then I am sure it will put at least one youngster off. KEEP IT UP!
