I am actually quite a clam chap, having an instructing background, it is the only way to stay alive. I just enjoy venting on here.
Quite right...nobody owes me anything. I am just so annoyed that the TRSS is the norm, even with tiny entry level operators flying ATR's. Who in their right mind would pay 15k to earn 18k after the outlay prior to get the FATPL?
But they (the operators) are almost all doing it and the ones that aren't are paying peanuts because of the queue to get in.
I was lucky and get a below averge deal, bonded for 3 yrs, but I can live on it....only if I instruct on the side.
As I said before, I never begruge anyone an opportunity, and I never have, but my original point still stands.....
I have nearly 1000hrs and 500 on type. Why should I still go onto a TRSS with that experience, with guys on 200hrs mostly SEP?
Sucks!!!!!!!
