Further consolidation (very unlikely) could ease the competitive pressure, but everything changed about 37 years ago. It has been a multi-decade adjustment.
Quite difficult for many of us who experienced it for the largest part of a career. Things change...nothing remains the same.
I think we all get your message, you had a $itty career. Now for the question - what makes you think the current pilots should expect more of the same. It's possible, had you been a little more vocal and not so fearful to encouraged your fellow pilots not to roll over for these conditions we wouldn't have to fight this fight today.
Meantime, we all know the history of aviation and what you guys didn't do for the profession. You helped screw it up and it's our turn to try fix it. SO, PLEASE!
