Around £5300 per month net working as Capt + Line Trainer for shorthaul european operation with an Franco/Dutch parent.

Perhaps we need more self esteem, or more importantly, the collective will to say to airline owners/mgmt "pay us a salary commensurate with the responsibilities of the job"....and not what the "market" will bear.
There are very few jobs where this happens as witness the disparity in premiership footballers and hospital doctors pay as a rather cliche example but there are plenty of others. £140k a year for no ongoing responsibility once you sign the tech log (allowing for preparation for prof checks or training duties etc) is pretty good going.
