I don't know, your situation, nor do I care. I do know what you are trying to promote is not a smart way to do business and make money in the airline world. However, like many, you don't care about that, you care about "what can be done for me". This is why you are a pilot, and not one making business decisions.
And you're right. I care about me and my fellow pilots. Airlines are making billions and paying their subcontractor labor pennies. They can afford to pay them better, and if that means it if no longer sustainable, then bring it back in house.

And, how many "regional aircraft" are still bouncing around with Delta Connection paint on them? Thank you for proving my point that business decisions are best made on the shoulders of management that knows what they are doing and talking about.
The fact that pilots choose their career path and not forced into that line of work has nothing to do with "dividends" . It is a tired old pathetic argument to **** and moan about wages. It is a gamble of a career that the smart ones understand there is going to be some struggle at first, that may not pay off later.

It will come this week. Plenty of new planes. That will lead to most people working the max days per month possible with little time off. And because Skywest does so much feed, the majors will continue to bypass hiring their pilots in order to protect said feed. ULCC, LCC, military, southwest, Alaska, etc etc will continue to lose pilots to the majors. But hey, you will be flying a shiny new jet for peanuts with no hope of advancing.

No you really are delusional. Bad naming the Regionals and wishing their demise after you made it on to some major using said Regionals. Are you going to be on of those guys on here harrasing regional forums even after you made it out?

Again the only person that you care about is yourself. If you actually cared about anyone else you wouldn't have even typed ME, you would have just said fellow pilots. Typical pilot pulling the ladder undermeath them after making it out. You think you're trying to help but you're just delusional.

If you think that's pulling the ladder up, that's your delusion.

Says the guy who doesn't work at Skywest but does hold stock while convincing them to vote in a B contract. I was the one saying vote no so they could get better money. Who is the anti-regional guy now?

You really can't help yourself can you? You think you know it all. I guess you can't fix stupid. By the way I'm assuming you went to Delta with all your Delta posts.
