What about the horribly low pay (McDonalds wage) that Regional Airline Pilots earn for years? Bus drivers/cab drivers make way more for way less hours.
Only way there will be more reasonable professional safe pilots in the future is to increase the pay to at least 50000/yr with no more than 50 hours per week.
Hey thanks for the vid, become an airline pilot is my dream and im deffinately never going to give up, i am doing flying lessons now at biggin hill airport but money is an issue, but i am young, im in year 11 now and giving in slips to 6th form (further education) and am most likely taking physics, geography and i want to take maths because i know it will help alot but its not really my strong point and the required grade to do it is a strong B and im on a C, But i will never ever give up ! : )
Never give up. Next time you do maths don't sit there getting frustrated, sit there thinking how every little bit you learn is helping you get your dream. That will make it a lot easier. Develop the skill set you need, take the right training, talk to the right people and it can happen.
Thanks...

@ clevmartin. It's never to late mate, considering retirement is 60, plus if you did integrated training you can have a airline job within a year
