Nice one Sorath!
A CAA Surveyor once told me, as I was entering the big world of civil aviation...
"Big Jets can get you big money;
Helicopters are complicated to manage and labour intensive;
Pistons aircraft are run by penny-pinchers who quibble over every rivet.
Business Jets are good money and good conditions - If the owner wants a new Radar and you ask him what type - he'll say "Colour!"
I don't think this statement has devalued very much over time.
Its never been a cheap "sport" - however, you shouldn't be ripped off either.
I think there's more to this than reaches the keyboard....
