Let's face it, as Pilots, we cannot even stand together in our own airlines. Let alone, trying to stand together as a group of "unified" Pilots.
The simple fact is: Airlines hold the whip hand currently. There are desperados who WILL add to already huge debts in order to reach their dream.
Stupid? Foolish? Selfish? I dunno, but the facts are that currently these people are very, very attractive to airlines. Cash today, risk tomorrow. Fair trade? The accountants will think so, because there's a safety net. It's called a Captain.
Until people realise there is no realistic future in paying out all that cash for a course at OAA/CTC etc, then things will just get worse.
If people stop training, the pool of ready victims wil be exhausted soon enough and then we'll see what happens.
My personal guess is that airlines will start type rating training again (with bonds), but that the entry salaries will remain very, very low for FO's.
It's a sh1t.
