If you want to be a pilot AND have good T&C's, then start your own airline!
Sure we get paid crap and work till we drop, but at least we like what we're doing! If not, DON'T DO IT!
Are you being serious? This is the sort of sentiment that the beancounters and airline managers the world over are longing to hear. I can appreciate you enjoy the job you are in at the moment and that certain elements make it worthwhile in your eyes. On some points I agree with you.
Commercial flying is a professional position of responsibility that requires a huge financial and personal commitment to enter into, and one that SHOULD offer a combination of a sustainable lifestyle and a pay package that acknowledges the skill, expertise and responsibilty required of all of us. Many people seem to enter this job thinking that a love of "flying" will get them through a 35/40 year career and that they are entering an exclusive "club", that professional flying is some sort of dream lifestyle. It's just a job. No more no less. Time off work and pay in your pocket quickly overtakes admiration of the sunrise on your list of priorities.
You are saying that it is impossible to achieve this as a pilot, that as a group we are not worth it, and as long as those newcomers joining our ranks think as you do and continue to accept ever decreasing entry level T&Cs then there is only one way for our profession to go.
