Experienced pilots come with pre conceptions about how we should be treated and the terms and conditions we should work under. The 200 hr 20 year old up to his neck in dept is just happy to be earning something and fly the shiny metal.
We are moving back to Victorian times, except it's not the mill house owners wearing posh clothes and drinking port, it's the company CEO and shareholders skimming he cream at the expense of the staff.
Does Dave and shazza care about 5 euros on a ticket price to pay for good training, experienced and well rested crew? I'm pretty sure they wouldn't notice, In fact, if my 6 hour experience trucking back on a Lo Co mob from sharm yesterday is anything to go by, all the want is to buy cheap fags and get pissed and sunburnt!
Experienced pilots, even if not on the type have capacity in the air in that cannot be earnt anywhere else. It's just companies would rather pay less and take the insurance claim when it comes, and why should a ceo care? Well they have spent the bonuses, taken the share issues and have a fat pension fund contribution, so as long as they can distance themselves from corporate manslaughter charges (which is why there are many layers to the post holder corporate onion) then why should they care? Well you don't expect them to have a conscience do you?
