i really hope that last post was meant sarcastically. please say it was.

A pilot - 12 months EASY work (most of the time he's sitting on his back side waiting for the weather to change) . Indeed if you add the effective training together its probably a lot less than 12 months......
where did you do your training? 12 months and it was EASY? not just easy, but EASY. i remember that i was sat on my arse alot, however i wasn't waiting for the weather to change, i was trying to pass 14 HARD groundschool exams.

Why on earth should the pilot graduate get a 50k starting job?
firstly, who is paying 50k for a cadet? can you give them my cv please?
secondly, it will help keep the bank manager happy because unlike the bsc engineer graduate the pilot hasn't had his education fees subsidised or loaned money at an incredibly low student loan rate.
thirdly, it's considered responsibility pay, there's alot of people to kill up there.

lets admit it - the job is easy compare to many others
don't give our secret away

are you in ryanair yourself? if not, you should be. management would effing love you; campaigning for lower pilot salaries.
