Why does management screw pilots? Because they can. I doubt any pilots will cross below their bottom line whilst doing their job. Lowering your productivity in responce to decreasing reward is a luxury pilots do not have (though a natural human response). The flying game, especially airlines is NOT what it once was. There is not the unity amoungst peers nor the mutual goals and respects for different roles. Probably a reflection of a materialistic, greedy world. Never the less, yes one can leave the game, but the majority of concerns voiced here are very real, and only come accross as whingeing as they don't have the power to change the way it is going. Why advertise....flying is magic.
