Dear Carruthers,
You show how limited your knowledge of the business world and lack of awarness of how professionals are deemed professionals. To begin with, train drivers and chefs at restuarants, to my knowledge, do not pay for the privillage of having their C.V's reviewed or obtaining an interview. I certainly have not heard of any ladies of the night having to pay their customers to consider their services or have sex with them.
Your limited knowledge of anything keeps refering you to "supply and demand". Well my misinformed and bitter friend you will have to find some better arguments in order to rattle my cage or any other professional pilots, who you seem to keep putting down.
No disrespect intended to train drivers, but keeping a train on a set of railway tracks from London to Glasgow does not require the amount of training as ia pilot requires to operate an aircraft from point A to B. The simply fact is that airlines need professionl pilots"demand" and there are quailified professional pilots out there"supply" but in no other profession, yet, have young inexperienced individuals have been willing to pay to get a job. In the process they are laying the foundation for mistreatment and lack of respect from their employer in the future.
So i will make this one last attempt of allowing you to read and understand that your arguement of "supply and demand" is a weak one. But you seem to have made a name for yourself on this forum board as the last couple of post indicate and i guess your trying to live up to your name. Goodluck to you.
