Long haul truckers also have a difficult job, and are squeezed by large shippers.

People associate used glamour with flying, but I think that is because it was so expensive and most people were shut out. I think of a passenger airplane as a greyhound with wings. There's no reason not to think of a cargo plane as a semi with wings, in which case you shouldn't expect the pilots to be much better off than truck drivers.
