im over 3000 hours total and 1500hours PIC jet on business a/c, 2 years on no still i wait for job. All the time must have 500 hours on type, so i understand why people who can pay, pay. All the arguments will not stop this.
I still meet pilots paying to fly because they have the money, and correct if someone wants to pay who will ever say no ?
I am happy to see jobs for those with time on types and yes i hope we can all move up and sure we will. But P2F is not going away, last weekend i met 4 pilots who finished summer contract paying for hours and already pay for next year, in order to "secure a seat". This really is scare tactics and crazy.
But good luck and hope we all get a job soon.
