I was demonstrating that equating the deal with Third World conditions is preposterous.
Agreed. You would want a lot more (and will get it) to go and work in the 'Third World'.
a fair indication of how far removed from the reality of global economics pilots have become as a profession.
Never a truer word spoken. It was only a decade or so ago that a pilot earned about 10% of the CEO. Based on recent rates, pilots are now earning incredibly less. Another excellent point, CD.
