Why? What is essentially being said is 'only disallow self-funded training for what I cannot, or will not, fund!'
Who said we can all pay for basic flying training (that's OK), but not further training? It just doesn't stand up I'm afraid, and regulation will never happen (how can it?).
I'm not justifying it, but that is how it is in a free country and a free economy. Rather than carping on about it and applying unreal pressure and criticism on a union to do something about it it really cannot do, you must learn to live with it.
