TF,
Let me confuse you with some facts!
YES, you do pay to fly. A few years ago the airlines found it lucrative to let the newhires pay for their typeratings, enabling them to keep ticketprices low. People like you finance our €29 Alicante tickets.
YOU are financing the airlines low fares.
Me and my fellow aviators never payed a dime for our typeratings (I have 6). The passengers payed them.
You sold out, not me!
