Now that is a plan!
To expand on it a little, could a fund not be set up as EWL suggested, to provide first years membership free to new CPL's? I know you don't like the idea of a 'free lunch', but the good will that it creates will be repaid many fold in the future, perhaps not in monetary value but certainly in kind.
Whilst I am at it, why is there no mentoring system for pilots? I am sure fresh CPL's would benefit by learning from aviation veterans! There are things you just can't learn from a flying school!
Times they are a changing, we need to change too in order to keep our profession prosperous.
