Glad to see I am not the only one still scratching my head (and ass) here...
However, at least I still have a job (at the moment).... When I started this subject, it was quite a few months back. Times were becoming a little difficult then but since the date I started this topic, there have been many companies going under and subsequently loads of pilots of whom are now unemployed. So I really do feel lucky to be working now, really lucky. I am so sorry if I have offended anyone who is reading this that is out of work and struggling to pay bills. I wish I could think of a way, other than start my own airline, of helping you guys out.
Times are tough now and sometimes I guess, you just have to appreciate what you have.
