Norman,
I am not trying to buck any system.
I am still at least 18 months away from leaving my current profession and trying to getting a flying job.
The point I was trying to raise was for discussion, and discussion can possibly make things fairer over the medium term.
It has got to be wrong that a pilot who could afford to stump up 60000+ pounds is a "good enough" pilot at 250hours whilst a pilot who has paid 30000 pounds at 250 hours (or 850 hours even!)is "not a good enough" pilot.
In fact, whilst I am not sure of the "chapter and verse" aspects, Tarmach has raised an interesting point on the possible legalities of this discrimination.
You say not to moan about things, well I look at the "rumours and news" page quite a lot, so I am just trying to practice moaning so that I am proficient when I am in a RHS.
