So how can we educate the general public about the conditions and educate aspiring pilots in the realities of the industry? How can we unite the pilot-group to be as powerfull as possible? I know many of you guys are very knowledgable, so come up with your idea!



I tell every wannabe who asks to get another education first. For 3 reasons: It provides a fallback plan should the pilot-thing not work out, He/she will expect more from life and when the time comes to make the decision whether or not to become a pilot the person will possibly be more mature in his/her decision.

I allso try to educate the general public in how little education is legally required to become a pilot and how much they make. I think it would make a great difference if the public knew our situation and just imagine if 121 mins were ATP. We would'nt be a dime a dosen anymore.
