I like the title to this thread, but in addition to identifying The type of Airline Pilots we have become, I think we also need to ask what kind of Airline Pilots are we destined to become.
Will their finally be a movement to restore integrity, principal, and respect to the aviators in this industry, or will we continue down the jangly road?
I'm somewhat optimistic with pilots like Captain Sully, who are truly identifying pitfalls in this industry. I'm not saying we need "one" individual to step up and address our deteriorating standards, but rather we all individually need to determine where our own personal standards are.
What's is each individual pilot's breaking point?
By breaking point I mean, the point in where a pilot will walk away from a job because that individual pilot has decided that they can no longer work in good conscience.
If pilot's are willing to work for sub-par wages and low QOL standards, then there will ALWAYS be Airlines/Airline Managers who are willing to exploit and take advantage of those circumstances.
