Pilots have effectively been subsidising GA companies by paying for their own training and working for low wages. Why don't you take someone on, pay for their CPL and pay a training wage while they're studying. Some airlines do this via cadetships.

Other industries train people with return of service expected and pay a training wage. Those that expect you to arrive fully qualified offer good starting pay and quick progression.

Which other industry costs so much to get into, and the employers expect you to work for so little.
