Improving the industry

Hi there,

The more I learn about the aviation industry the less attractive it becomes. I am angry at the way some airlines treat their staff, its not right and we shouldn't have to put up with it! I have spoken to numerous pilots both online and offline who are fed up with the current state of things. They're fed up of being treated like sh*t!

How do we remedy the situation? How can we make airlines treat their staff, especially their pilots better?

I have come up with one idea. I know it has many flaws and is potentially unworkable. What about if pilots who are serious about improving terms and conditions within the aviation industry set aside a percentage of their salary each year for a good few years and then put all money together to start their own airline which will hopefully be better than what we have at the moment?
