Being a CX pilot is all about moaning and whinging about pollution, moaning about Cadets, moaning about salary- basically moaning about life in general
Errr, isn't that just being a pilot full stop!?!?!?
Sadly, as with most industries nowadays, terms and conditions will be dictated by market forces. Truth is, the market wants to fly for less money than it costs to ride a train over the same distance so until lots of planes start crashing and "would be" pilots (as well as current aviators) turn their backs on flying careers then we will continue to be bent over and rogered...
