Nutloose is right. Take a look at the real world out there.
The contruction and banking industries are in outright depression. Just about everyone else has seen a fall in standard of living over the last year of over seven percent and those with savings seen drops of around twenty. The pound is down a similar ammount against the dollar and the euro. Secure video conferencing is on the increase.
How long is it going to be before trade to the budget airlines dries up?
OK the major airlines will survive, but it will be bunker mentality for the next three to five years, and they will have an awful lot of pilots to chose from should they require any.
If you have a secure job, hang on to it.
