It's sad to see people taken advantage of like that. Completely misplaced loyalty. We as pilots are cost units--a liability to the company, not an asset. Although I guess if the company can get free flying for zero pay/benefits...the pilots become an asset. Or a slave.

The company would never do anything remotely resembling what these pilots are doing by flying for no pay.

It's very depressing to see pilots this clueless or deluded. Please have some dignity and stop working for free. Talk about lowering the bar.
