You know tsubasa27, those numbers are truely disturbing. It's one thing to slug it out for years in G/A, the low pay, the risks and the general uncertainty of it all. Eventually however one might just make it into a reputable airline, start earning decent money, and finally plan for the future.
It's a completely different thing, at a young age, to mire yourself in debt for a position that not so long ago was considered the end result of all that labour! Now the position is just the beginning, but unfortunately for many it will be the end of the line also. A professional domestic airline pilot earning less than minimum wage, trapped in a position that will garrentee years of financial harship!
Does anyone see the potential for some future psycotic episodes in this?
