Brilliant Stuff,
I too am a "civvy" pilot who is not in it primarily for the money. However I do believe that a person should be paid what he/she is worth and not what the employers can get away with.
We have a couple of shifts coming up that our provider is unable to fill with relief pilotage (have never been keen on the expression "Floater", reminds me of a Peter Kay advert) due to lack of pilots. This will result in our unit being unable to provide cover and having to rely on mutual aid from neighbouring forces. If any more pilots resign to pastures new or fall ill how many more shifts will be lost around the country?
NLJ.
