So what's the solution? It lies with the employees to not AGREE to working as slaves, then the operators would have to change their ways. And we all know that ain't going to happen
If thats the case CFI, its not a very good solution, is it?

some operators can undercut others because their staff allow themselves to be exploited
What an absolute load of crap! I know of several companies who pay award, and still have the lowest rates in the area.

This debate is just going in circles, pilots say they don't want big (or small as the case may be ) things put in their bot-bots, and operators say they only do it cos pilots allow it and agree to it.

As CFI said, as long as it lies in the hands of the pilots and operators, nothing is going to change. So take it out of our hands, and let the government enforce an award.
