Why should we care what others think about pilot salaries? I don't care how much you get paid
Human curiosity. Plus the topic title is "Pilot wages VS other jobs". Why are you posting if you don't care?
Look, despite what you think of me as a mere civilian I am not completely stupid. I wasn't born yesterday. I am aware that pilot wage amounts were decided many years ago by people far more experienced and intelligent than me. And then there is supply and demand to factor in.
But if Ryanair are anything to go by...
