The bottom line is helicopter pilots will accept any bone that is thrown their way. If you dont take it, somebody else will. Airline pilots also started at the bottom of the food chain long ago and together, union or not they pushed ahead and got the compensation they wanted because they knew strength in numbers was to their advantage.

Customers play helicopter companies like fine tuned fiddles and balk at every measure to increase rates and will jump at the next lowest bidder to take the current ones place. These operators cut each others throats to the point of losing money so someone else cant take the work. Plenty of blame to go around in our industry and the fingers are always pointed at the other guy.

What a great way to make living.
