heavy.airbourne, you are simply talking about something you are not really informed about. Italian salaries are higher than than in germany incl. LH.
A F/O at AirOne makes more money than a LH F/O, so does a CPT.
If now LH thinks they can get experienced crews for peanuts, they are wrong.
They might find some unemployed pilots, but with a salary below the italian standart they wont stay for long.
@bio161 I dont really get your question, the selection has always been like this and even for LH the selection standarts have varied over the years.
