Stand alone
"The man who flies for free knows his worth."
I have stood firmly by my principles and haven't flown professionally in years as a result. The truth is that everyone in this world is negotiating for themselves. It is easy for those who are gainfully employed to make such statements however pilots have always either sold themselves cheaply or paid handsomely in order to get their careers off the ground and to keep them going.
We all pay, some with years of our lives some sell their integrity others pay up front and in cash.
