Kapt M, the lack of a unified pilot body certainly has allowed the current situation to develop. However IMO the actual downward pressure on wages didn't develop until VB and Impulse entered the market.

Using your reasoning in commending the VB pilots who returned to Oz on less pay; could you argue that a newbie CPL who agrees to work for half pay is demonstrating their commitment to Oz aviation?
