Hey Pantera,

If you think that a corporate job is safe, careless and well paid, well actually you may be an idiot !

There's no free lunch, my studies weren't and I'm still paying for it ! Pilots are incredible by thinking that they are the only ones paying 100K$ for study. Go and apply for engineering shool then MBA...

I've just stated that at least you are FLYING, not spendind time in front of a computer or worse, travelling for your job all the time and watching the others flying... I take the plane every weeks, and incidentally I sell them...

Anyway people are free to believe and act as they want to, I respect every opinion but implying that it is easy to find a careless, well paid, safe corporate job while poor, mortgaged to the hilt pilots are struggling for life in an airclub earning !!!! is just bull!!!! from someone who never entered into a company.

I know mainly business aviation, as I am specialized into. I can tell you that pilots -even unexperienced- starting on Hawker or similar are earning much more money than I do after almost 10 years of work with half the hours as my boss does't give a !!!!! of how many hours I spend in a plane or hotels or nights working to sell aircrafts that I wish you to fly one day ! (I'd prefer piloting smaller ones )
