Surely true! Just with a BUT.
In a working aviation environment you also donīt get sacked for having an opinion on the safety of the plane as a Cpt., get arrested by demand of your employer for breaching some non existing contract and so on(Police is always helpful when somebody waves some cash)...as happened to people I know!
You need RVA to enforce laws (with what qualified personal?) and pilots need a Union in DRC, otherwise there always will be another guy next in line waiting for your job.
Luckily the market for pilots is improving worlwide and DRC is running more and more short on suitable pilots. If it helps remains to be seen.
