Funny. As the good General alluded to in a quote on the first page - ‘they can’t compete with the airlines for the money’.
A guy at my humble airline made £70,000 in July. Flying a 737. That’s obviously atypical, but it’s definitely do-able. It seems obvious from Gums and OK465 posts that this problem has been around for a while. It’s also appears that the solution is obvious, to all but the people who are able to change the system; Stop screwing people around, and let them do what they joined for - Fly.
