I read your comments about corporate pilots as derogatory. Suggesting that a corporate pilot is beneath an airline pilot. Most corporate pilots I know really enjoy their jobs. Get paid a very good salary from the start and have a better schedule. I've never done corporate flying so I can only go by what I am told though.

So all the Pan Am pilots chose poorly? How about the delta pilots in the mid 90s and 2000s?
The industry needs a change. Clearly if this discussion comes up every few years its something that pilots want to see. A discussion might lead to positive change that has led to improvement all through out history. Every journey beings with a first step. Maybe if enough of us can come up with a solution it might take hold for the betterment of all pilots.
