As we don't seem to be seeing pilots at these "other airlines" taking a principled stand and resigning, then I don't think its really fair to blame Ryanair pilots for the downward spiral in terms and conditions that they are apparently having to put up with. Flybe FOs take home around 20k - perhaps we should blame them too? Or perhaps we could all accept that this is what is happening to the free market of pilots salaries and stop moaning.
