Am I Missing Something ?

tgvbhy15,

I don't understand where the vitriol is coming from or why ? North Sea pilots earn around about the same as airline pilots; they and many American and other nationality pilots exercise their freedom of choice to work in their home countries rather than work in West Africa.

Many, maybe even the majority of them were trained by their respective governments at no cost to themselves, rather the taxpayer footed the bill.

Surely the issue of seeing families/home life etc is a personal choice ? If not, then what is it ? Money ? In which case this is a non issue. Also, what relevance does this have to the incident ?
