The problem is, there will always be somebody out there who will take the work and be happy with the money ! The flying game used to be "white man's magic" and so it was a gravy train for western pilot's in the middle east.
Flying is not considered such a big deal anymore and pilots are hired from all over the world and happy with what we would consider to be raw deal.
We can always return to ryan air and pay for our own type ratings , sim checks and uniforms ! Time for a career change ?
