time to play devils advocate
Why the hell should my subscriptions go towards trying to get you lot jobs ?.
I,ve worked long and hard to get myself into aviation without a penny of help from any one and at last make about half that of a BA long haul captain.
Now you lot want me to help pay for all sorts of nif-naf and trivia to make you feel good because jobs are hard to find.
Grow up ! , if you are BALPA members then you may get some help , if not then you will get the same help as I got from the industry........sweet FA.
