That was Oscar winning stuff but little over the top don't you think. At the end of the day pilots are just another job and as much as we would like to think we are the most vital part of any aviation organisation well its just not true. Could you be replaced, yes for the most part by the aircraft its self which with guidance from you does the majority of the flying, well that's how the management see it.
The industry is going down hill and for a number of reasons but throughout so many different post we will always get the armature dramatics of how incredibly important we are but at the end of the day we like to fly so over time we as pilots have allowed the industry to take advantage of this.
I wish it was differant but its the truth in all sectors.
