Shaun Ryder
I think we will find looking back through time that the world has always been the same.
A person who pays to fly (as you call it) is not responsible for your current predicament in any way. The hundreds of cadets I work with have not jeopardised my employment.
I was made redundant some years ago now when I had a type rating but no experience - I picked myself up. I sort of know how you feel (I had no family to support).
There is so much wrong with professional aviation i am stunned - hence I am making my way out.
I will advertise my job here forthwith....
Mr Ryder - try not to wind yourself up too much, it will only make you ill.
take care
