Ah, MOLG, so you describe recently recruited FR pilots as 'cogs' yet maintain a derisory attitude towards us. I suggest you start criticising and attacking the driving engine behind the changes, not some of the victims. I suggest you contact your namesake and all those pilots at 'established' airlines who have acquiesced in the changes.
Find me a pilot at any airline who doesn't moan about some aspect of his job. It's in the nature of the beast to complain, in every industry...
