“Try buying a house in a capital city and raising two children”

Maybe its time pilots realized our lifestyle is based upon our salary, not the other way around.

“A Skywest captain in Perth with it's mining boom house prices and a wife at home looking after two pre school children will find his $2000 a week after tax doesn't go that far.”

Try renting. That’s what most of the worlds population does.

“The same applies to a QANTAS captain living in Sydney with an ex wife to support as well as a new family.”

Good grief. Silly market driven salary didn’t factor in a divorce.

“Since that in Australia takes roughly around 15ish years from your first flight to get that experience”

This comment is tongue in cheek I assume?
