Low paid pilots from UK
Gentlemen,
Why do the Brits work for so much less then Americans? Your cost of living is very high, your working conditions are nothing terrific, and the future isn't looking any brighter. Everytime I turn down an offer for some overseas carrier because of the low pay, 10 Brits are on there knees to some arab or such for the chance to work. Are things that bad in the UK?
Moreover, do you have any union power or is it every man for himself on the emeral island? I can not imagine UAL, AMR, CAL, pilots putting up with an Atlas B-747 wetlease for 2 seconds. So why are the BA pilots allowing their company to outsource their highest paying equipment to US pilots?
I really do want to know, I am not just trying to cause trouble. Warmest regards.
