Thus beginneth and endeth the perpetual cycle.
How much do GA employers spend advertising and/or training up new pilots . . . only to have to do it all again every six to 12 months?
Pilots exploit employers as much as employers exploit pilots - it's a vicious cycle.
And let's face it, pilots aren't averse to exploiting each other, either, if it means getting a leg-up.
It's every man for himself in this industry - at least to some extent - and that's the crux of the issue, IMO.
I know we don't want to see ourselves in that light, but let's be honest. You either play the game or you get . . .
