What a change in the status/treatment of professional pilots in this time.Used to be a respected job and employers treated you as a true professional....sadly not any more.Pilots are treated as hired hands,by employers and airline agencies alike,with worthless contracts and abyssmal t& conditions,more appropriate for a labourer.
Every word the TRUTH. My dear old dad ex RAF, ex British South American Airlines ex BOAC and ex BA - Lancaster dropping bombs on the HUN to B747 moving hundreds of pax at a time via the Constellation through Comets - says exactly the SAME. So I guess you must be right!
Enjoy your retirement and don't be shy - I am sure the local flying club will welcome you - even if it's only for a coffee and a chat
