Look its quite simple really. LEP bring to the table a lesser product than most expats, therefore get paid accordingly. You cant demand the same pay for less experience and skill. They were happy to sign-up for the job with those conditions, now they are just envious and greedy. Pilots on bases dont get an allowance, no complaints there.
Im no racist, but I just dont sleep as well when there are two local ex-cadets up front, than some crusty ole expats. Think about it.
