Poor pay?
It's funny. People complain about the low pay rates spelled out in the gA award, but many insist on working for much less, undermining the system, and generally degrading GA. Such behaviour encourages the poorer operators who exploit new pilots.
The sooner the multi crew pilot licence comes along the better. Airline pilots are mainly flying technicians these days, and GA flying is becoming less and less relevent every day.
It's time the major airlines stopped exploiting GA, and did some of their own pilot training, or at least did provisional selecting before the wannabies spent their big bucks on flying training. so they would know where they are going (or not going). And the flood of prostitute pilots would stop.
And GA would have some experienced, career pilots again, getting paid reasonable wages.
It's time this obscene lottery stopped.
A realist is alwys hated. Particularly in a society of hustlers.
