OVERPAID NIGELS

At the risk of stirring the hornets nest, come on guys, get real here. The job of airline pilot is a grossly overpaid one.

High salaries were justified in times past, because aircraft systems were complex to operate, navigation skilled and aircraft unreliable.

At best, the terminal threat to the career from unmanned airliners can only be delayed. Flight crews will have to get over themselves and rightly accept lower and lower T&Cs to stave of reality.

STOP MOANING ALL YOU NIGELS, something is better than nothing even if your standard of living is trashed.
