Captain Wally as always a good post! The youngsters of today in my opinion have little or no drive. This maybe why the young ones seem to chose other professions. It is still a tough and expensive long hill to climb to become a pilot. You just have to open the jobs section in the paper to see several high paying jobs with little or no qualification (Secretary in the CBD 80K 9am-5pm and the list goes on). Don’t get me wrong I love flying and that is the only reason I pursued it as a career!! There wouldn’t be too many professions out there where you have to out lay 70/80K up front to get trained up!!!!

But I do agree.... good to see that the people who train/teach our young ones are getting paid what they are worth!!

Do what you love and money will follow ...... don’t think it works for aviation though!! Pity the youngsters don’t take this on board.
