But finally it is getting out to the wider public through the media who have up 'til now shared the belief that all pilots are blessed with superhuman powers which get rewarded by fabulous lifestyles, high salaries and benefits that others can only dream of.
In Balpa's words, a leftover income of "£500-£1000 per month" after investing £100,000 in training is the reality for the few that even get a job at all, or worse still P2F.
This is the reality of aviation in the 21st century!

Incidentally, articles in yahoo get hundreds of comments. This has so far had 5. Read what you like into that?
