ShotOne - if pilots can help "nasty" management to make money for themselves and shareholders, then there is no way they will be cut back.
You only get rid of assets that are too expensive to keep or not earning their keep. If you're not wanted, ShotOne, it's because you're not productive enough. May not be your fault - but that's life and you'd do exactly the same if you ran the company.
