Exactly. A horrible comparison. Yes, most airline pilots in general make decent wages and can afford to enjoy a good living. The previous post comparing us to a 3rd world country, give me a break. We are professional airline pilots that have an enormous responsibility to public safety and security, and we should be treated and compensated as such.. I’m Not disagreeing with the fact that some in other countries face unbelievable hardships and tragedy. That’s for another debate all in itself.
