Angry Where are the peanuts!!

Right in front of you!

I worked four long hard years self financing/studying for my training. Lets assume I could afford the CTC scheme, that first six months pay with CTC wont make the payments for my debt. Thats peanuts for me Lemon.

Now I dont hold these cadets in disdain but I tend to agree with BB on this one. As a low houred new recruit I landed a job with a UK major which I subsuquently lost after Sept. 11th. Despite a contract and pay cheque in the bank I still dont have my job back. Why? The company replaced us with CTC cadets because they were CHEAPER! Now wheres the advantage for the just as deserving but less affluent low houred pilot??

Would you have taken my job?

Now before you flame me, I have yet another jet job and yes I gained it as a low houred pilot after 09/11. Without paying for it and for a proper salary.

Rant over.
