Jethro, I have been trying to make sense of your posts here for a while now.
Do you actually work as a LAME ?
You have been anti contracting companies for a long as I can remember.... some of which you obviously knew nothing about.
Many of the guys here are very happy with their life and the flexibility and adaptability they are achieving.
Not everyone wants to have their life waste away while working at the back of one hangar.
Job security may be fine for some.... but there are also horses for courses.
I wonder about your licence coverage because you just seem so out of touch with the hourly rate some of the guys here are getting.
