Poof in boots,

'The day of the £60,000 Captain is not far away'

I will bet you £60,000 you are wrong. Supply and demand is the letter of the law (you are about to find that out) and talking to mates in the 'Training World' young pilots are not entering the profession in large numbers for various reasons. Credit has dried up and there are no jobs amongst a few.

Airlines pay pilots well because you don't put a monkey in charge of a $300,000,000 asset not to mention the 400 souls behind the door.

Pilots will always be paid well for what they do. Accept it and for Christ sake move on.
