Luke,
I commend your intention, however it won't change anything I suspect. This is an issue for expat pilots like yourself, possibly looking to keep an option open with regards to returning back home at some stage.
Those working in the industry do all they can to 'advise' wanabees. SSTRs, PTF, flexiscrew, pseudo self employment, paid by the hour contracts. The aviation industry in Europe is a dead dog with the largest two lo-cos no longer expanding. Yet still people are queuing round the corner to sign up for licences and type ratings, all based on marketing dupe and false promises.
