my terms and conditions and pension have totally been eroded since fr came along. I feel like a bus driver now and its all down to the mercenary fr cadets. I refuse to fly with anyone who "pays to fly" my bosses don't like it but hey ho. A pilot who owe's £70-100k then gets paid peanuts or else has to pay for line hours can't, repeat can't, have their mind fully focused on their job what with loan repayments, mortgage/rent repayments, council tax, gas, leccy, food etc etc etc its just not safe unless your daddy is Donald Trump.
Any of you wannabe mercenaries come on the flight deck with me, don't expect a warm welcome, coz ur ruining my salary etc.
Anyway if you really want to get in then get punted out in six months, go for it, it will be worth it in the long run .......... NOT!!!
