Its often said that the pilot workforce needs to band together to improve T&Cs. But they need to band together and fight against FR/SSTR/P2F pilots who are the ones destroying T&Cs across the industry.

They are worse than in a strike.

The funny thing is once they get themselves into BA Emirates or wherever after their stint in the Loco, they come on here complaining theirs T&Cs are getting worse again.

And whos to blame?

Themselves.

Over the last few years I have met many people from outside of aviation who mention they have friends working for FR and that I might aswell hand a CV in there and get a job. I then explain to them that it costs 30000 euro to pass the interview and that by accepting it their pilot friend has not only ****** up his own profession but that the practice of paying for jobs will inevitably seep into other industries too. (We're not the only ones who operate expensive equipment)

End result? The FR pilot loses some friends.
