I strongly agree with Mr John Smith. FO will pay more and more, they will get proposed long pseudo "line training" from 500h to 3000h, to have minima to be captain...that is the futur. I bet it. And I will eat my hat on that.
Flying is normal nowaday, pilots are not heros anymore. Forget 1970's movies. Flying is considered like driving for business. No more no less!
