I personally blame unions for the killing of our industry!
Letts go back 20 years and imagine this? Instead of looking after their mates in the airlines, the unions looked after the people that where being exploited in GA.
Imagine there where fair working conditions for instructors, charter and regional pilots!
I was in GA 20 years ago. I’ve meet corrupt politicians that cared more about our conditions!
Fat cats looking after other Fat Cats!
As an airline pilot now. I think we should start at the bottom, there is going to be a pilot shortage! Make the conditions so good that a GA pilot will think twice about leaving his job. This will increase everyone’s conditions.
Learn for our past mistakes!
