Interesting letter from Roger Cohen I found

No doubt, they are sowing the seeds of their own destruction. Unfortunately, the senior leaders who only need to milk another ten or fewer years out of the system have no incentive to take a long term view. TODAY the RJ pilots subsidize a higher hourly rate for them. Tomorrow...who even cares about tomorrow, they'll be over the age of 65.

This has been tried before...so far the attempts have never come close to success, they have ended on liquidation. Not saying it couldn't happen but it's not as easy as it sounds. There are many, many other factors other than pilot wages...the savings realized on $20K FO's cannot maker up for all of the other hurdles.
